Eduardo Sanchez, a talented filmmaker, was born in Cuba in 1968. As a young individual, he developed a profound interest in the art of filmmaking. During his formative years at Wheaton High School, Sanchez honed his craft by creating school movie projects, such as "Shrimp Fried Vice" and "Pride (in the name of Love)", which featured his friends, family, and himself as the main cast.
Upon completing his high school education, Sanchez pursued his passion for filmmaking at Montgomery College, where he continued to produce movies, including "Star Trek Demented". He later received acceptance into the University of Central Florida, where he created "Gabriel's Dream", a film that he believed would be his breakthrough, although it would take nearly a decade for his big break to arrive.
In 1997, Sanchez collaborated with his close friend, Daniel Myrick, to commence production on what would become the most financially successful film of its time, "The Blair Witch Project" (1999). This worldwide phenomenon has since become one of the most parodied films in history.
