Valerie Lopez

I was born and raised in Ontario, Canada. From an early age I knew I had a passion for storytelling and motion pictures, though I thought I would become a singer or dancer, life had other plans for me. My family moved to Quito, Ecuador when I was 13. I was submerged in a completely different culture full of life, colour, and warmth. This experience enriched my life and gave me a unique perspective on story telling. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Film & Television Production and a Minor in General Psychology at the Universidad San Francisco de Quito. During my University years I also formed a band and pursued my passion in music, song writing and dance, which allowed me to connect deeper with the emotional and sensorial side of visual arts. I believe that story telling is a journey experienced through our emotions, film & music must uncover the parts of us we most often experience in our dreams while being wide awake.

Remaining faithful to my love of music, I think of visual arts as a perfect harmony, where each element contributes to accomplishing a unique product. I also believe that as I gain new life experience, I have access to different lenses which allows me to approach every project with a fresh new perspective. After 3+ years producing, co-hosting, and editing YouTube videos for 3 different channels I finally started my own Vlog Channel, which will launch in January 2023, where I share my love for travel, music, and family. Constantly producing content has kept me eager to learn and adapt to contemporary trends while engaging with new audiences. I leave a part of myself in every project and my goal is to leave my mark in the film & online creative community.
