Patricio Ginelsa

Patricio is originally from Daly City, California, where he started making video movies with his neighborhood at the age of 13. After graduating with a BA in cinema production at the University of Southern California, Patricio became the Associate Producer of the award-winning film The Debut" and assisted in its theatrical self-distribution by driving his car across the country. He wrote and directed the feature "Lumpia" which Variety called a movie that takes "low budget to new heights... and should be shown in high-school media classes across the continent". He has directed music videos for numerous artists including the Black Eyed Peas with "The Apl Song"(2004) and two versions of "Bebot"(2006). The Generation One version of "Bebot" was lauded with the Presidents Award from the California Preservation Foundation for its focus on Stockton's Little Manila District. Under his production company Kid Heroes Productions, Patricio continues to develop his various projects while still seeking for some sort of representation and yet maintaining his day job and somewhat of a normal life..
