Monty Miranda is an American film director. His first feature film, Skills Like This, won the Best Narrative Feature Audience Award at the SXSW Film Festival. The film released theatrically on March 20, 2009, on DVD November 17, 2009 and premiered on Starz, the premium cable television channel on December 31, 2009.[1] https://buffalo8.com/portfolio/monty-miranda/

Skills Like This screened worldwide on the film festival circuit prior to its American theatrical release by Shadow Distribution in 2009. The film received positive reviews from publications ranging from The New York Times and Variety to Salon.com. In her review for The New York Times, Jeanette Catsoulis wrote, "the offbeat chemistry of the cast, along with Monty Miranda's eye-catching direction...make all the difference... Drawing much of its energy from an eclectic and fully integrated soundtrack, "Skills Like This" gazes indulgently on 20-something aimlessness and the comfort of assigned roles. In Mr. Miranda's hands sloth can be more appealing than you might think."[2] Variety further stated that the main characters of Skills Like This showed "considerable intelligence and chemistry"{{citation needed|date=October 2009}} in addition to calling the film "deftly directed"{{citation needed|date=October 2012}} and from Salon Andrew O'Heir reviewed Skills Like This as "Cheerfully anarchic ... indescribably genuine."{{citation needed|date=October 2012}} New Video Group, reviewing the DVD, said the film "bristles with rock'n'roll energy—underscored by the sounds of Denver's music scene".{{citation needed|date=October 2012}} The film screened in theatrical release for four months.

Following graduation from the University of Colorado where he studied Film and Journalism, Monty Miranda founded the commercial production company Incite Films which launched his directing career. Miranda's producer on Skills Like This was the documentary Academy Award winner Donna Dewey.

The Insomniac is the second feature film directed by Monty Miranda. His first film, Skills Like This (which stars Spencer Berger, who plays Andrew Booker in The Insomniac), won the award for Best Narrative Feature at the South by Southwest film festival. Salazar came up with the idea for the script when he caught someone breaking into his house after a scheduled meeting was canceled. Although nothing happened to him or his house, Salazar didn't sleep at all, thinking about what could've happened if he went to the meeting. On a radio interview, Salazar revealed that he couldn't sleep profoundly for two weeks due to the ambient sounds outside his house, fearing that someone was trying to break in again. This led to the writing of the script. The movie also stars Danny Trejo and John Heard (actor).

Principal photography took only 18 days, with two extra days for pick-ups. Grand Entertainment Group is distributes.

Miranda's third feature film is a 3D documentary [https://www.amazon.com/American-Mustang-Daryl-Hannah-Narrator/dp/B00RKVYN7S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543130631&sr=8-1&keywords=American+Mustang American Mustang] described as an "[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2651214/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl artful blend of exquisite nature documentary and character-driven narrative, the majestic wild horses of the American West are revealed in stereoscopic 3D as never before. The wonder in a girl's eye pulls us into the drama that unfolds on hundreds of millions of acres of public land. The battle lines have long been carved into the landscape, and the players are deeply entrenched. Yet as the subtle choreography that has evolved over thousands of years begins, we are captivated. The intricate dance between a man and a wild horse presents lessons for us all, even the battle-hardened special interest groups fighting for the place of the AMERICAN MUSTANG."] American Mustang is Narrated by Daryl Hannah.

His award-winning political spots have been featured in the national press.[3] CNN, the Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post praised the ads for their innovative approach and contribution to a landslide upset victory by brew master restaurateur and political neophyte John Hickenlooper, helping him to win the Denver mayor's office by the largest margin in history.[4]
