VICTOR AVILA

Victor Avila is an LA-based Director of Photography with more than 20 years of experience helping both directors and creative agencies alike bring their ideas to life in truly unforgettable ways. 

 

His dynamic portfolio includes work ranging from award-winning documentaries like Dave Grohl’s Sonic Highways to lifestyle-driven projects for high-profile artists like The Jonas Brothers, as his brilliant skill behind the lens, uncompromising work-ethic and collaborative approach have made him a top choice for shoots requiring small crews to capture flawless imagery in fast-paced and often intimate environments. 

 

In addition to his documentary and lifestyle-storytelling work, he has also amassed a wealth of experience in the automotive industry, helping iconic brands like Audi of America and Lexus capture thrilling running footage for use in broadcast commercials, in-depth product training videos and more, as well as compelling interview content with the C-Level Executives leading those brands. 

 

Over the years, Victor’s work has taken him to 35 countries, and helped him build a collection of top-of-the-line gear that is always ready to travel with him. His investment in the equipment he trusts helps ensure consistent quality no matter where the road takes him, but also helps keep costs down thanks to a personal customs Carnet, which allows him to transport that gear freely through 87 countries and territories without passing on the duties and import taxes onto his clients. 

 

So, whether your next video is a corporate message in need of more than just cookie-cutter content, a compelling personal portrait of a renowned artist, or, quite literally, anything in between, rest assured that Victor will not only meet the unique needs of your project, but exceed your expectations at every turn.
