We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Luis Luyando a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Luis, thank you so much for making time for us today. We can’t wait to dive into your story and the lessons you’ve learned along the way, but maybe we can start with something foundational to your success. How have you gone about developing your ability to communicate effectively?
Celebrating Excellence: Luis Luyando & Willy Martin Win the 2023 Suncoast Emmy Award
We are elated to share the joyous news that Luis Luyando & Willy Martin have been bestowed with the prestigious Suncoast Emmy Award in 2023.
At the heart of our ability to connect with the world lies the power of storytelling, a craft we hold dear in our documentaries. This time, we extend our deepest gratitude to Henderson Gonzalez for generously opening the doors of his home, allowing us to craft and convey his “Sweet Story.” It stands as a narrative among the 7.7 million Venezuelans who have ventured far from their homeland. Today, we stand tall with an accolade in the Short Format Direction category, an achievement that resonates not only with us but with an entire nation.
In assembling a team that could breathe life into this compelling story, we found excellence in every role:
Mariana Gutiérrez: Your script was the soul of our narrative, using words that resonated profoundly. Your talent serves as a guiding light of inspiration.
Rafael Ángel Giménez Cordero and Jacqueline Nicole Jiménez: Your cinematography transformed each scene into a visual masterpiece, capturing the very essence of our story. A heartfelt thank you to Passio Photography.
Juan Manuel Salazar: As the Associate Producer, your expertise and approach were instrumental at every stage of this project. Your contribution has been vital to our success.
Iliana Martínez Luyando: Your graphic design breathed color and form into our vision, complementing the narrative of our story with precision.
This award is not just a recognition of our work; it is a celebration of collaboration, dedication, and the profound impact of storytelling. We take immense pride in being part of such a talented and passionate team.
To our readers, thank you for your unwavering support. We look forward to continuing this journey of sharing stories that resonate and connect us all.
