There are certain individuals you’ll experience in this world who operate at a different level and are mindful enthusiasts of literally anything they do. You feel that spark the moment you meet them, and admire how humble they are in their exceptionalism.
That’s Maui boy, Santana Sebastian. Amidst his love of sports and playing baseball, this young man has also discovered his passion for ukulele and entertainment. He no doubt shares gifts of his father (celebrated ukulele virtuoso Derick Sebastian, and Santana also dazzles with his sleight of hand skills doing magic, which has brought him mind-blowing success.
Santana’s latest path has been combining his creative and visual thinking with photography, film and cinematography, while accepting opportunities to collaborate with established filmmakers and directors. With much success in his creative work, this young man produced his own YouTube Channel, multiple Spec Commercials and received 26 total High School Division Pele Awards statewide for 2022 & 2023, including four “BEST OF SHOW” Awards. He was also honored with the prestigious “2022 Student Voice Award” from MHA Hawaii and PBS Hawaii, and recently featured in the Hawaii International Film Festival.
Santana now resides in Portland, Oregon furthering his career as a creative assistant and editor at one of the most respected production companies in today's industry, Blue Ox Films.
What’s next for the amazing Santana Sebastian?
The sky’s the limit!
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Santana on some of my most important projects to date and his contributions have always aided in taking each project to the next level. He proves age is but a number. His talent and maturity displayed on set is inevitable. Book Santana while you can, because one day when he’s shooting the next big Marvel movie you’re going to be kicking yourself for not reaching out sooner.”

“We’ve used Santana now for several projects including casting photos and b-roll that was sent to a TV production studio on the mainland. Santana has artistic vision, eye for detail, patience, flexibility and great people skills. We look forward to using his company again.”
