Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Rubén Navarro. I am a Spanish/American filmmaker based in Los Angeles, CA.  I have developed my craft in the film industry for more than a decade and I am also a 2018 Film Independent Project Involve fellow. 

As a writer/director my short films have been selected and awarded  in dozens of prestigious domestic and international film festivals, such as, Oscar Qualifying Palm Springs Shortfest, Outfest LGBTQ Los Angeles, Edmonton Film Festival, Out On Film Atlanta’s LGBTQ Film Festival or BFI Flare by British Film Institute. Currently, I am in pre-production to shoot in 2025 my first feature film: "Me, After You".

As an editor I recently worked on the upcoming Apple TV+ show "Lady in the Lake" starring Natalie Portman and directed by Alma Har'el. I was also an additional editor in the film "Sam & Kate" directed by Darren Le Gallo, starring Dustin Hoffman and Sissy Spacek with Executive Producer Amy Adams. I recently edited the short film "Wannabe", making history as the first Ecuadorian film ever selected for the Tribeca Film Festival 2025. I have also edited an episode of the Critic Choice Award nominee "Acapulco" (AppleTV), the Spanish feature film "Marco Polo" directed by Pablo Riesgo, the digital series "East of La Brea" (premiered at SXSW) directed by Samantha Bailey (Marvel's "Ironheart") and from executive producer Paul Feig.; and many more. 

If you wanna know more about me, I invite you to check my website and feel free to contact me. I'm very excited to be able to work with you and keep creating inclusive content and stories full of art and soul.
