Alberto Arvelo was born in Caracas, Venezuela. He is a writer, musician and director known for A House with a View of the Sea (Una Casa con Vista al Mar) (2001), Cyrano Fernández (2007), Libertador (2013). Arvelo has developed film works renowned for the social and human depth of their characters and the visual strength of their images. His films have won more than 30 international awards.
His film, A House with a View of the Sea (Una Casa con Vista al Mar) (2001), tells a story of discrimination and injustice faced by a widowed father and his son amid loneliness and difficulties in the South-American Andes. The film was a part of the official selection for the Cannes Festival, was acknowledged with 23 international awards, and participated in over 40 international festivals.
As a professor with the National Film School in Mérida, Venezuela, Arvelo founded the film movement known as "Atom Cinema" ("Cine Átomo") 2002. This movement is based on the idea of producing reflective human films with a crew of no more than five people and minimal production elements, intended to create viable projects for young Latin-American cinematographers. The first film within this movement, Habana Havana (2004), directed by Arvelo merited the Venezuelan National Film Award, and another dozen international awards.
His prize-winning work, Cyrano Fernández (2007), is a free adaptation of the French classic, Cyrano de Bergerac. The film maintains the Cyrano-Roxane-Christian love triangle represented in the chaotic though spectacular urban surroundings of a barrio in Caracas. The leading role in Cyrano Fernández was played by Edgar Ramirez.

This documentary narrates the "El Sistema" phenomenon, one of the most well-known and widespread social programs in the world. Arvelo's connection to El Sistema goes back to his beginnings as a violoncellist with the Youth Orchestra in Mérida. Play and Fight became the most-watched documentary in Venezuela; it was translated into 15 languages.
Play and Fight was followed by a second documentary based on the international projection of "El Sistema": Dudamel, Let the Children Play (2010). This documentary is a review of the crisis of traditional educational models and an exploration of the importance of art and music as universal rights. This work had the collaboration of Sir Ken Robinson, John Williams, Daniel Barenboim, Simon Rattle, Richard Holloway, and José Antonio Abreu.

His most recent film, Libertador (2013), a Venezuelan-Spanish coproduction production, is based on the life and work of Simón Bolívar, leading roles played by Edgar Ramirez, María Valverde, Danny Huston, Imanol Arias, Iwan Rheon, Gary Lewis, and Erich Wildpret, script by Timothy Sexton, and music by Gustavo Dudamel.- Alberto Marín was born on 18 January 1948 in Caracas, Venezuela.

The constant evolution and artistic openness of Alfredo Ovalles as a musician make him difficult to categorize. Born in Caracas, Venezuela, the pianist has explored many different musical worlds. The combination of his classical upbringing, in parallel with his experience playing in rock and pop bands in Caracas "made music seem like one single world, where borders are very blurry and performances in one genre inform the approach to a different, seemingly unrelated kind of stage".
In the course of his career, Alfredo has explored classical and electronic music, and roamed the field of contemporary music. His curiosity for the new and love for experimentation make him stand out, and have led him to many musical places off the beaten track.
Performing in some of the most prestigious festivals in Europe, such as Wien Modern, Transart Festival in Bolzano, and the Warsaw Autumn Festival, his collaboration with The Black Page Orchestra has led him from performing Stockhausen in an abandoned submarine pier in Croatia to premiering ensemble and solo works in venues such as the Lutoslawski Hall of the Polish National Radio or the Wiener Konzerthaus. Composers with whom Alfredo has collaborated include names such as Jorge Sánchez-Chiong, John Zorn, Roberto Sierra, and Mirela Ivicevic.
As committed to finding new compositions as to performing the standard repertoire, Alfredo is also in demand as soloist and chamber musician, having played concerts with orchestras such as the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Polish Baltic Philharmonic in Gdansk, Poland, the Orchestra of the Academic and Musical Theater of Minsk, Belarus, and the National Symphony Orchestra of the Dominican Republic, among others.

With a well-developed career as a composer, producer, songwriter, orchestrator, arranger, conductor, and guitarist before moving from Caracas to Hollywood, Paiva-Bimbo has also worked with hundreds of international music artists from very different music genres: Diane Warren, Luis Enrique, Becky G, Bryce Dessner, Los Amigos Invisibles, Alejandra Guzmán, Nella Rojas, La Vida Bohème, Luisito Quintero, Carla Morrison, Ilan Chester, Anat Cohen, Bronco, Servando Primera, Ralph Irizarry, Pacho Flores, Ximena Sariñana, Guaco, Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra, etc.
