Tim Cruz, a renowned Writer/Director from Manila, was meticulously nurtured and trained in the art of visual storytelling from a young age. This early start was sparked by his involvement in developing negatives in the back room of his father's esteemed photography business in New York City, where he gained invaluable exposure to the world of film.
Cruz's exceptional talent and dedication earned him a coveted scholarship to the prestigious Future Filmmakers Workshop at New York University (NYU) during his high school years. He further honed his craft at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, working his way up from every department, starting as a Production Assistant (PA) and Coordinator, to eventually becoming a Producer, Cinematographer, and Director.
His passion for storytelling and filmmaking led him to Los Angeles, where he played a key role in story development for The Weinstein Company before co-founding Prospect Finley. In addition to his work in film, Tim's creative vision and drive have made him an internationally recognized, highly sought-after Director for music videos and commercials.
Throughout his illustrious career, Tim has worked with nearly every major record label, including Warner Music Group, Capitol Records, Universal Music Group, and EMI, collaborating with some of the industry's biggest stars, such as 50 Cent, P Diddy, Theophilus London, 30 Seconds to Mars, Travis Barker, and Sabi. His impressive roster of commercial clients includes GQ, Sony, Lockheed Martin, Discovery Networks, Bravo, Spark Networks, and MTV.
