Javier Ochoa on set

Javier is a self-taught filmmaker based in the Basque Country, Spain. He studies at the Universidad de Navarra and works across narrative film, brand storytelling, and visual direction.

He shoots on Canon — both digital (Rebel system) and analog (1964 Canon Cine Zoom 8mm) — blending analog texture with digital precision. His work is shaped by a deep interest in character, light, and the quiet weight of everyday moments.

His background in Economics and Political Science gives him a holistic lens on storytelling — a problem-solving approach to narrative that goes beyond aesthetics to ask why a story works, how it moves people, and what it leaves behind.
