irreverEnt & surreal comedy
Aldo’s work is visual, often dark, and always meant to entertain rather than preach. He enjoys placing Latino characters into worlds we don’t often see them in.

Aldo’s ‘60s pilot, Our Shag Pad, won Best Original Series at HBO’s Urbanworld and Best Web Series at Warner Media’s NY Latino Film Festival. It premiered at Austin Film Festival and was presented by WB’s Stage 13.
He also wrote & directed When the Bomb Drops starring Emmy Winner Rachel Bloom of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. It was nominated for an Imagen Award for Best Comedy Web Series.
Aldo sold a half-hour pilot to Turner Broadcasting’s Super Deluxe. In addition, he developed a series with Jared Stern (LEGO Batman Movie) at WB.
Writing credits include Ben 10 for Cartoon Network — and early on, Aldo wrote for the ABC and CBS Talent Showcases.
Aldo studied screenwriting at NYU and acting at The Public Theater. Acting opposite Oscar Winner JK Simmons on TBS’ Men at Work was a particular highlight.
He made L.A. his home when he participated in the NHMC's TV Writers Program sponsored by ABC and NBC. He has completed Sony’s Diverse Directors Program — and was a semi-finalist for the NBCU Launch TV Directors Program.
Recently, Aldo finished post on a horror-comedy, Real Zombie Movie — and he wrapped filming on the sci-fi satire Pretties vs Uglies. He is an active member of a weekly creative group led by Nicholas Weinstock, producer of Severance.
