Meet our DIRECTOR @peruvian_falcon 🤼
Franco Vidal is an award-winning, proud Peruvian writer and director based in Los Angeles. He earned his BA in film production at California State University, Northridge where he wrote and directed his musical thesis, “Hot Latin Nights at the Granada!” The film was awarded the Franz Wieser Grant by ARRI and premiered at The Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater and screened at the Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival. Franco has served as an intern at Michael Showalter’s developing company, Semi-Formal Productions.
He is currently in his third year pursuing his MFA degree in Film Production at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts as the recipient of the George Lucas Family Foundation scholarship. With a deep love for pulpy genre films and his Latino identity, his work often reflects one of those loves if not combines them both. There’s nothing he loves most than making art showcasing vibrant, underrepresented cultures with talented filmmakers that share his passion for film. When not working on his next creative project, you’ll find Franco searching for vintage Latin Jazz vinyls, eating delicious street tacos or watching a movie at one of his favorite LA repertory theaters.
LALIFF 2023
Attending LALIFF this year has been an unforgettable experience. I’ve long dreamed of having my work screened here and that day finally came. It was an honor to have @hot.latin.nights.film programmed among such amazing Latine films and filmmakers. Grateful for all the new friends I’ve made. Blessed for all the friends, family and crew who came to support. Happy for the memories we’ve made. ¡Hasta la próxima!
