Biography

Venezuelan-Canadian filmmaker Juan Carlos Lopez Duran was born in Caracas, Venezuela on July 10, 1970 to Tulio Lopez Rodríguez and Gladis Duran de Lopez. Juan Carlos comes from a large family of 4 brothers and one sister. His early childhood was typical of a middle class Venezuelan family; school during the week, soccer on the weekends. But his fascination with movies began very early. In middle school he carried his uncle's 30-pound VHS player as he taped high school basketball games with a SVHS camera. In high school he borrowed his uncle's camera for his senior project. With a budget of $50, 4 friends, a SVHS camera, no lights, and amazing talent, he created a short that could rival the most sophisticated of today's student films.

Following high school graduation he enrolled as a communications/film major at the prestigious Catholic University Andres Bello in Caracas. He graduated in 1992 and rapidly began an active career as a producer. Shortly after graduation he met renowned Latin American director Alberto Arvelo while working for AM Films. Mr Arvelo and Juan Carlos became an extremely effective creative and management team and embarked on an ambitious project with the creation of production company Cinema Sur. The company was founded in 1997 and rapidly became one of the most influential film production companies in the country. While with Cinema Sur, Juan Carlos produced "Una casa con Vista al Mar" (A House with a view of the Sea) by Alberto Arvelo (2000), winner of more than 15 international awards and recognized as one of the best films ever produced by the Venezuelan Film industry. In 2000, he developed, wrote, produced, and directed, with filmmaker Alberto Arvelo, "Los Ultimos", a television drama series that became the highest ranked Venezuelan TV series of the decade. In 1997, working as a producer for AM Films, López-Durán served as casting director of the internationally acclaimed feature "Una Vida y Dos Mandados" (One Life and Two Trails).

Juan Carlos left Cinema Sur in 2001 to create his own film production company: Explorart Films. "Tocar y Luchar" (2003) "Mas Alla de la Cumbre" (2008) "Children on the Summit" (2010-Present) "Extremos" (2010) "Road to Ithriyah" (2021) and "Amuri" (2021) are among the successful films of this content production house. He currently lives in Vancouver, Canada.
