Because We All Start Somewhere

What I do have is years of experience as a wedding filmmaker - and those lessons are exactly what I want to share with anyone ready to take this beautiful job seriously.

There’s a lot to learn - gear, lighting, composition, editing, color, music – and it can feel overwhelming. I’ve been there. The hardest part? Starting. Whether you’re brand new or leveling up your films, I’d love to help guide you.

I believe in mentorship because I’ve seen its impact firsthand - it’s how I got here. Now, it’s my turn to give back. Some of the filmmakers I’ve mentored have even joined me on shoots, proving that when we grow together, we go further. 

So - ready to take the next step?

First off, I’m not a “master” - and I don’t want to be. I’ll always be a student of this craft, learning day by day, just like you. 

The exact resources that set my films apart.

Filmmaker’s Digital Assets

Every great film is built on details – and these are mine. From nuanced color to subtle sound, these collections of LUTs and SFX are designed to save time and deliver depth, without compromise.

Azure

Azure is a bold go-to look that maintains natural skin tones while enhancing cityscapes and vibrant colors. With a signature emphasis on blues, it adds contrast and character that makes your footage pop with intention.

Blanco

Blanco subtly enhances natural skin tones with a refined, soft touch - adding depth without overpowering. Its balanced palette brings a calm, polished feel to any scene.

I learned by doing – and so will you.

Real strategy, behind-the-scenes editing, honest feedback, no gatekeeping. Just the hands-on growth that actually works.

Mentorships & Courses

One thing I learned early: stay a student. I’ve invested heavily in my own education over the years, and now I’m excited to give back to the filmmaking community. I don’t know it all (and I don’t want to!) – but I do have experience, insight, and proven strategies to help you level up.

Quick Note +

I shoot on Canon and edit in Final Cut Pro - but all camera systems and software users are welcome - it’s the filmmaker, not the tools.

Watch my EXACT process as I edit a real wedding film from start to finish.

I’m beyond excited for this because I truly believe it’s a first of its kind in our wedding film space.

If you’ve followed along my journey, you know that post production is where the magic comes together - but how does that look like from start to finish, and I mean ACTUALLY look like?

The Editing Room.

This is the WHOLE PROCESS… 

 From file organization, music selection, culling, storytelling strategy, pacing, audio, visual and sound effects, color grading, export settings and much more…

I want to show you how to maximize your creative potential and blow away your couples by overwhelming them with a truly unique audiovisual experience. The entire editing process, unfiltered.

Be among the first to get notified for when The Editing Room is pre-released.

Let me introduce… 

The Editing Room is a 9 module course where you will watch me (Will Sarmiento) as I edit one of my wedding films from start to finish. That’s right, you will quite literally take a back seat in my editing room as I walk you through my thought process, make real-time creative decisions, and conjure up a TRUE Sarmiento Media wedding hype film.

Early access, honest insights, and tools to help you stand out.

If you’re serious about growing as a creative, this is where it starts:
