Our Story

Having graduated from San Diego State University with degrees in Film Production, our professional experience spans a wide range of online, television and movie productions, in addition to various photography assignments.
While in school, our work was showcased in several film festivals and won two National Emmy Awards. After graduation, we combined to edit a pair of features: Bel Air, executive produced by Nicolas Cage; and the horror film, Bloodhead, directed by Christopher Coppola. In addition, we wrote the story, and served as associate producers on the Wesley Snipes action movie, The Marksman.
We also worked as cinematographers on America’s Most Wanted, and I Survived, and worked on the feature, G-Men From Hell. Later, we combined to direct the first two installments of the Street Fury franchise, as well as the premiere episodes of Inside Drift. We have worked for Ed Tech Productions and Learning Headquarters as well, bringing us into the world of education, before branching out on our own, and forming Illuminating Pictures in 2012
