Carl Miller
Believing that motion pictures significantly influence positive change, Carl Miller obtained a BS in film production from SDSU.

He returned to the San Francisco Bay Area with a degree in hand to work for Industrial Light & Magic. There, he "cut his teeth" in the industry for 20 years on more than 30 major motion pictures and quickly grew into a position as a Visual Effects Director of Photography.

Concurrently, he independently created a 90-minute video about SCUBA diving in Monterey.

Carl was the Creative & Director for the half-million dollar DLP Cinema trailer, "Birth of an Image," which played for nearly a decade in theaters worldwide.

Carl began his independent dramatic filmmaking career with the motion picture Retaliation, which featured at prestigious film festivals.

Carl was the Cinematographer who re-shot George Lucas' film Red Tails and captured Kat Alioshin's film Animation Outlaws.

Now local to Los Angeles, Carl continues to innovate the potential of streamers, films, and commercials.
