On Location with Omar Leyva
Through digital films, photography, creative writing, and editing, we are able to render unique concepts.
I’m known by family, friends, collaborations, and clients as…
a “MacGyver type” or “Mil Usos” in Spanish. My best friend once said I am like a Swiss Army knife on set. The truth is that I’ve been known to seek solutions to problems ever since I was a kid. I’ve always enjoyed building my own computers and fixing electronics. My road to becoming a creative consultant evolved through various projects, ventures, and artistic interests.
One of my first clients…
was a company that started the Franchising system (Franchise Business International). My work with their VP, Sam Klein, ended in a friendship that helped me to expand into business marketing, web design, and copywriting. I’ve spent my entire adult life helping companies with their marketing efforts and my love for design also married well with my growing love for Photography.
I became a writer because…
I love poetry and that base has served me well throughout my creative life. My background with Theater took me from the stage to what is now over a decade of work in front of the camera. My years of independent and studio film work have allowed me to combine many of my loves into what is now On Location.
Producing media today…
involves various disciplines and understanding all the moving pieces is essential for success. Creativity is at the core of writing, directing, editing, designing and even producing any project. Delivering a message to customers begins with a special understanding and bond with the product or service. I love knowing and working with my clients on a very personal basis. I find that my on-location approach allows full creativity and “outside the box” thinking.
Keep creating! Omar Leyva
