Creativity doesn’t happen in a vacuum. At AV Creative, we’re lucky to work with a network of wildly talented humans — locally and globally — who bring their own flavors of genius to the table. Together, we turn ideas into stories, and stories into something bigger. Also? They’re just really fun to work with. Which helps. A lot.

Who started it all…

Armand Velazco is a Peruvian-American filmmaker based in Denver, CO. His many years of working at agencies and developing independent passion projects finally led him to start AV Creative, a hub for all things related to the visual medium of storytelling. 

As a second-generation immigrant, Armand is drawn to stories of human resilience and celebrations of diversity. His professional and personal values are reflected in the incredible clients he works with and in the fruits of their collective labor.
