About Guillermo

Growing up in Venezuela, where the political and social situation constantly changes, Guillermo Arcaya developed his technique by watching Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange." The violence portrayed in that film and the psychological reaction due to the director's vision made Guillermo realize the influential tool filmmakers had, sending a message that hopefully impacts life as we know it.

Nowadays, films rely too much on trending and technology rather than deep and meaningful stories to create emotions. That's why his work has had a massive influence from the 1930s, 40s & 50s. Moreover, as a musician, Guillermo became interested in music videos as a place where he could combine narrative stories with visual freedom that some films lack.

Pursuing his BFA in Motion Pictures & Television at the Academy of Art University led him to a freelancing career in the film industry, working for BBC, Snippies, and Canal Futura in Brazil, among others. His desire to grow in this hyper-competitive business caused him to create Trickshot Productions, an independent film company based in the Bay Area and Miami Beach, to specialize in creating Films and Music Videos.
