It’s dark, it’s styled, it’s meant, always.
Diego Marquez is a Mexican-American filmmaker in Phoenix, Arizona.
Above all else, he is a director. While his narrative works may differ in story, there is a strong through-line with direction and execution. Diego likes to twist his storytelling into unconventional methods, oftentimes ending in heavy surrealist tones. His direction never just ends with guiding actors, he pays attention to all from the music, to the costume, to the edit. He has a deep love for all artforms, and uses his films as a multimedia showcase. All elements come together to create his signature black-and-white-andthensome style.
Diego’s commercial camera work is much similar to his narrative directing. Style and substance go hand in hand when it comes to his cinematography. He specializes in shooting fashion ads, and works closely with designers to create stories with their work.
