I’m Adam Vazquez, a award-winning filmmaker and digital storyteller dedicated to telling bold, human-centered stories through film, documentary, and digital video. Since 2017, I’ve been the lead freelance digital video creator for GLAAD’s communications team and the on-site editor for the GLAAD Media Awards — editing and filming campaign videos, PSAs, press interviews, event coverage, and original series. I edited both seasons of DÍMELO, GLAAD’s digital comedy talk show spotlighting LGBTQ+ Latine comedians, which was recently named a finalist for the 2025 Halo Awards in the Best Gender & LGBTQ Equality Initiative category.

I’m also the co-creator and co-producer of OTHER BOYS NYC, which chronicles the lives of 50 LGBTQ+ queer and transgender men of color in New York City. The series has been featured in NBC News, Vice, and Mashable.

As a producer and associate editor, I helped bring the award-winning feature STOCKADE to life — an “immigrant noir” thriller that premiered at the 2023 Woodstock Film Festival, won Best Narrative Feature and Best Female Actor at the 2024 Queens World Film Festival, had a limited theatrical run in Los Angeles in 2025, and is now streaming on Prime Video and Apple TV.

My short film work includes producing THE INTERVIEW, a sharp comedy set over a single Zoom call, which played at 15+ festivals worldwide and earned awards including Best Writer – Comedy (NYWIFT), Best Comedy (BuSho, UPTILT), and Audience Award – Best Pandemic Film (Poppy Jasper). I also produced LUZ MARINA, which premiered at HBO’s New York Latino Film Festival, and THE CHO STORIES, a trilogy exploring Korean American family dynamics and intergenerational trauma, which screened at Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival (won VTeddy Audience Award), Peekskill Film Festival, Bushwick Film Festival, and Loudoun Arts Film Festival.
