John Luke Miraflor is a filmmaker, film professor, and creative producer from Malabon, Philippines. He holds a BFA from the University of the East and is pursuing a Master’s in Media Studies (Film) at UP Diliman. A member of the Filipino Society of Cinematographers (FSC), his short film Limbo (2019) screened internationally at Flickerfest and Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia, while Clairvoyant (2021) was featured at Interfilm Berlin and BIFAN. He also served as Director of Photography for Transients and Lunod, both shown at Cinemalaya and Gawad Alternatibo 2024. His body of work often delves into philosophical and existential themes, questioning identity, memory, and the fragile nature of reality—an approach deeply influenced by Quentin Tarantino’s bold storytelling.
