Joaquin Montalvan was born in Los Angeles, California, and raised in Alhambra and Pasadena. He studied filmmaking and acting at U.C.L.A. and completed his first feature "The Sleep of Reason" in 2000. His second feature "Adagio" was completed in 2002, screening that year at Sitges International Film Festival of Catalunya. He was the lead actor in both of these films. It was during the making of "Skinhead" (his first documentary) that he discovered he would rather be creating images from behind the camera, instead of acting in front of it. "Visual Futurist: The Art & Life of Syd Mead" subsequently won him the Audience Award for Best Documentary at Dances With Films 2006 with the highest rating in the festival's 9 year history. He has since reemerged into the world of narrative feature filmmaking with
"M O B I U S", a Psycho-Spiritual Thriller which plunges one into the dark recesses of the human mind... He has recently commenced production on his second Psycho-Spiritual Thriller, "HOLE".
