Stories with Soul. Made Together.

I am Michael Vela — an Emmy-winning filmmaker and the creative force behind Spoke & Story Creative.

I craft content with purpose: visual stories that move, connect, and resonate. Whether it's a short film, brand campaign, or community spotlight, I aim to create work that feels authentic and impactful.

Based in San Antonio, I draw inspiration from South Texas — its people, culture, food, and landscapes. My love for cycling, cooking, and storytelling fuels my creative process, helping me see the world through a lens of curiosity and connection.

At Spoke & Story Creative, every project is more than just content — it’s a collaboration rooted in meaning, craft, and heart.
