About

The Director Behind the Broadcast

Guillermo Ventura · Broadcast Director

Get In Touch

Since 2014, I've been the person in the production control or truck — calling shots, managing crews, and making sure audiences get a seamless, cinematic experience whether they're in the room or watching from anywhere in the world.

I spent a decade as Broadcast Director, leading multicam productions and an international tour across arenas and stadiums in the USA and Canada — including Yankee Stadium, The Forum in Los Angeles, and Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.

"Directing isn't just about cameras — it's about telling a story in real time, with no second takes."

Most recently, I directed Ryan Castro's Sendé World Tour at Estadio Atanasio Girardot in Medellín, Colombia — his first ever and sold-out stadium show for 40,000+ fans with hundreds of thousands watching across Colombia. I'm also the founder of FTL Productions, a video production company built on creativity, precision, and world-class execution.

Based in Cincinnati, Ohio — available for live events, special productions, broadcast consulting, and directing work nationwide and internationally.
