With a background in scriptwriting, directing, and production, Israel Consuegra is a distinguished producer in Miami’s short-form industry. He began his career in Cuba, directing and producing documentary and fiction projects, which led him to focus on producing. In 2012, after winning Best Film for a project he produced, he moved to Montreal, Canada, where he continued developing his career.

After relocating to the United States in 2015, Israel worked as a producer for CNN Latino and Mira TV, gaining valuable experience in broadcast media. He later co-founded KPRA FILMS, a production services and equipment rental company, collaborating with major production houses, creative agencies, and record labels including Sony Latin Music, Apple Music, Spotify, Universal Music, Warner Latin Music, Def Jam Recordings, Univision, and Telemundo.

In 2019, he founded Singular Pictures, focusing on short-format content such as commercials and music videos, where he serves as producer and creative director. In 2022, in partnership with Matices Media, he launched Stage 22, a startup production company dedicated to producing original films that amplify Latin talent in the U.S. and bring their stories to a global audience.
