Behind Sage

A one-person film outfit that runs lean — writing, directing, shooting, and cutting short indie films frame by frame.

Based in San José and comfortable on any set size, from run-and-gun two-handers to fully crewed shoots. The work stays small on purpose: tight stories, real locations, and a look that earns the big screen.

Direct

Story, performance, and the shape of every scene.

Shoot

Cinematography and lighting for a cinematic frame.

Cut

Editing, color, and sound that hold the mood.

Produce

Lean budgets, small crews, tight schedules.
