Timmy Wildgoose – Cinematographer & Editor
Riley Hosea – Office Assistant Manager
For as long as I can remember, I would imagine life around me unfolding as if I was in a classic film. My surroundings would become an intricate and creative film set where the people in my life were actors. Growing up, I would make up storylines that I would follow with my GI Joes and Transformers that were never ending. But just as all children do, I soon lost interest in playing with toys, and my childhood scripts became a hobby of the past.
It wasn’t until I walked into my first production studio in 1999 for an introduction production class at Mt. Sac (Mount San Antonio College) that my talent for creating story lines as a boy would be reborn. As it turned out, Mt. Sac shared their facility with West Covina TV, which granted the students unparallel access to TV broadcasting equipment. The lead professor at the time, Mr. Smith, was a USC alumni and had a broad background in the film industry and he help apply his knowledge along to his students. My narrative films produced while attending Mt. Sac were nominated in the Schools Film Festivals as well as Pomona’s Smog Dance Film Festival and the Riverside student Film Festival.
After attaining my Associates Degree from Mt. Sac, I transferred to California State University, Fullerton to continue my studies in TV/Film Productions while attending CSUF; I furthered my knowledge about the subtext of film making and worked with 16mm film learning from various industry professionals. I earned my Degree in RTVF (Radio/TV/Video/Film) with minor in Sociology in 2004.
During my tenure in college, I worked on numerous film sets, was employed at Clear Channels Los Angeles 102.7 KIIS-FM for three years as a promotional associate and worked for an Aftermarket Insurance Agency that dealt with the Car and RV industry.
In 2005, I started my own Video Production Company that specialized in events and business videos. Four years later we have shot and produced over 100 Wedding, Birthdays, Anniversaries, business video content and others events. I am very proud of what we have done and what we strive to achieve. Every day I look for ways to improve our overall quality for our clients. What I love most about Videography is capturing and creating with my camera the drama of people’s lives and their events.
