Hi, I'm Alvaro Pérez Abrahantes. Before moving to the U.S., I was the Chief of Audiovisual Projects at Cuba's only independent arts NGO, the Ludwig Foundation of Cuba. There, I produced and edited documentaries on renowned Cuban artists and mentored new filmmakers. I also taught documentary film to students from NYU's study abroad program in Havana. Since relocating to the U.S. in 2019, I've been building a career in nonfiction television, commercial, and documentary post production. I enjoy working on a variety of projects, from branded short films to feature-length documentaries, and I bring a wealth of experience in editing, translating, and archival research to every job.…Hi, I'm Alvaro Pérez Abrahantes.
