Pure Grain is a swell company. It swells between one and forty people depending on the project.
Mostly, though, Pure Grain is Roberto Miller directing and producing videos for clients such as HP and Apple.
Roberto also makes award-winning digital films that have been broadcast in Europe and the U.S. and screened at film festivals such as Sundance.
After completing a far too sensible study of computer science in college, Roberto fled perfectly good job prospects and became a journalist abroad. He wrote articles about sailing, music, and off-beat stories for The Wall Street Journal and other publications.
As luck would have it, editors were often annoyed by his visual style of writing and prodded him to pick up a camera. He did so and soon left to make films with then prototype digital cameras.
Since then, Roberto has written, produced, and directed stories for the screen, large and small. His clients include HP, Apple, Sony, and Stanford University.
He owes the "o" in his nickname to family roots in New Orleans and Central America, and is currently focused on making a feature film.
