Danny Valdes(I)
- Camera and Electrical Department
- Cinematographer
- Producer
With a B.A in Cinematography from the Asociacion Mexicana de Cineastas
Independientes (AMCI), Danny Valdes has followed his calling behind the camera and
since then he's been devoted to painting with light.
Valdes has combined his passion for the image with his spirit of adventure and
specializes in underwater cinematography, both in swimming pools and at sea. One of
his recent projects as an underwater cinematographer was a commercial for Mexico's
Navy Search and Rescue Team at Sea.
Danny's versatility to print a cinematic look in any project, despite production limitations,
has made Danny one of the most sought-after cinematographers of his generation. He
combines his time between filming commercial as DP and Operating Camera A in
television series.
We could say that Danny is an "all-terrain" Director of Photography: in addition to the
underwater cinematography, his work includes aerial shots from a variety of aircrafts:
helicopters, planes, airplanes, etc. Both air-bound and on-land for VFX work.
