Sam Menendez, documentary filmmaker, director and co-founder of Apollo Studios, at the Apollo Studios office

Director for hire.

I'm Sam Menendez, a director, writer and editor based in Park City, Utah and Los Angeles. I direct commercials, brand films and documentaries for agencies, production companies and brands that want a story people actually care about.

Over the last ten years I've written, directed and edited hundreds of commercials for brands like PlayStation and Salesforce, and directed documentaries now streaming on Apple TV and Amazon Prime, including The Real Cost and Hurricane Maria: Stories from the Storm.

What I bring to your project
· Commercials and brand films with a documentary director's eye for real people and real moments
· Documentaries and docuseries, from first interview to final cut
· Writing and editing in-house, so the story holds from script to screen
· Bilingual direction in English and Spanish

I direct in Utah, Los Angeles and on location anywhere, either joining your team or bringing the full crew at Apollo Studios.

Let’s Work Together
