Manillan-born Writer / Director Tim Cruz was nurtured and trained from a young age to be a visual artist. Tim's first exposure to film came while working to develop negatives in the back room of his father's beloved photography business in New York City. During high school, Cruz was accepted to a scholarship program at NYU dubbed the Future Filmmakers Workshop. He continued his collegiate training at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. He worked his way from every department serving as a PA and Coordinator till eventually becoming a Producer, a Cinematographer and a Director.

His love of story and film led him to Los Angeles, where he worked in story development for The Weinstein Company before co-founding Prospect Finley.

In addition to film, Tim's creative vision and drive has culminated in him being an internationally known, highly sought-after music video and commercial Director. Tim works with nearly every major record label, including Warner Music Group, Capitol Records, Universal Music Group, and EMI with some of the hottest stars, such as 50 Cent, P Diddy, Theophilus London, 30 Seconds to Mars, Travis Barker, and Sabi. Selections of his commercial clients include GQ, Sony, Lockheed Martin, Discovery Networks, Bravo, Spark Networks, and MTV.
