Sanchez Media was created by Alan Sanchez, Creative Director and Director of Photography. After working in the industry since 2004, Alan started Sanchez Media in 2018 because of the lack of diversity in the media industry: on set, in the production office, at newsrooms, ad agencies, and other boutique production companies. Further, the lack of diversity in agency and production company ownership is even lower. Sanchez Media was born out of the need to create more space, control, and creative input on video production projects not only for Alan, but for others. Sanchez Media believes that producing projects that are mindful of diversity and inclusion create a better product for the client."

This naturally led me to my obsession with creating stories with film. By combining my mastery of photographic composition with moving pictures I was able to leverage this skill and gain acceptance into the Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles.
