About me
Hi! My name is David A. Vargas. I am a Cuban-American filmmaker from Miami, FL. In 2007 I started my production company, Penilican Pictures, creating unique and professional film production for commercial clients I have garnered throughout the years including HBO, Sony Television and Yahoo.Aside from producing for the film/tv and commercial market, I have produced music videos for many up and coming Latino artists, produced and directed my own rom-com indie feature that funded on successful Kickstarter campaign titled "Love and Hostages," and created a comedy web series titled "Hialeah series" that has an organic following of more than 20K people on Facebook.
I have a deep passion for honest and funny storytelling that explores the human condition, and leading creative and professional teams to accomplish a common goal is one of my biggest strengths as a director. I work quickly, respect budget constraints and deadlines so undermining the power of pre-production is not in my DNA. I am a professional editor as well so shooting for the edit is how I go about executing my vision on set. Filmmaking is an extension of my soul, and surrounding myself with people who love what they do and share my excitement for bringing an abstract idea to life is how I approach every creative adventure that I take on.
