Owner-run, from start to finish.

Mark Romano is a director, editor, the founder of RomaScope, and a cum laude graduate of USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. His work spans educational series, documentaries, and brand content. As a director/editor, Mark is always thinking about the edit while working on set, which guides the shots and performances the story needs and helps him decide when it’s time to move on.

He first stepped onto professional sets in seventh grade, when a neighbor who ran a production company near Washington, D.C., took him on as an intern. He started his own production company in 2011.

Four years later, Mark began working with Age of Learning, the company behind ABCmouse. He directed ABCmouse partnership episodes across the country, with the Boston Red Sox, the Philadelphia Flyers, the San Francisco Giants, NASA, and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. The Red Sox episode, filmed at Fenway Park, received a 2026 Regional Emmy® nomination, and his ABCmouse videos have been watched more than 141 million times on YouTube. He also directed more than 800 lessons for My Reading Academy, My Math Academy, and My Reading Academy Español and led their post-production, building the workflow, guiding a team of up to 30 editors, and reviewing every lesson through final delivery. For the Spanish series, he directed bilingual performers with the English and Spanish scripts side by side. His other work for Age of Learning includes WordPlay with Kwame Alexander, the Newbery Medal–winning author’s writing series, and more than a dozen other series for the company’s subscription platforms.

His commercial work grew out of one offer: Mark asked food photographer Jon Edwards if he could film a behind-the-scenes piece on a Panda Express shoot. That led to years of directing and editing videos for brands including Cacique, Chicken of the Sea, Cinnabon, and Reser’s Fine Foods, a client for more than a decade.

Mark also directed and edited Quake Heroes (2017), a FEMA-funded documentary about the 1994 Northridge earthquake, developed in partnership with Mark Benthien, lead organizer of the Great ShakeOut. Nearly a decade after its release, the film still brings communities together through screenings and earthquake-preparedness events. He is now developing an “event in a box,” a kit that gives communities what they need to host those events themselves, so the project can reach more places than the team could support one by one. He also directed Alzheimer’s Disease: Demystified for Cal State Fullerton; four of its five films were selected for the 2026 APHA Public Health Film Festival.

Victoria is RomaScope’s co-owner, with more than 18 years of experience across entertainment operations, production, finance, and business development. She runs the business behind RomaScope’s productions, overseeing budgets, schedules, operations, and client relationships, and has worked alongside Mark since the company began—both on set and on the books.

Her career spans film, television, music, talent representation, digital media, and production. While at USC, Victoria became the first USC student selected for the Creative Artists Agency Fellowship, working in CAA’s Television Department. She went on to work at CBS Films and gain hands-on production experience at Sony Pictures Entertainment on the set of The Young and the Restless through the Sony Pictures Spectrum Program.

Victoria later worked as a Talent Coordinator at Vincent Cirrincione Associates, where she worked closely with managers and helped oversee a roster of more than 110 actors. She then became the first hire for Fullscreen’s SVOD business, helping launch the new division at the digital media company founded by George Strompolos, co-creator of the YouTube Partner Program. She later joined New Form, the digital studio co-founded by Discovery, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, and other entertainment industry leaders, as its first Business Development hire. There, she helped launch the studio and later managed business and sales operations. She subsequently became an Account Executive at entertainment business management firm NKSFBGO, handling the financial and business affairs of high-profile entertainment clients.

Today, Victoria is co-owner of RomaScope, bringing experience across the creative, production, business, and financial sides of entertainment to the company and its productions.

A Carolina Covenant and McNair Scholar, Victoria earned her bachelor’s degree in Communication: Media Studies & Production from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with a Journalism and Mass Communication (JOMC) Multimedia Core specialization. She earned her master’s degree in Film & TV Critical Studies and a Business in Entertainment certificate from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. She later completed UCLA Extension’s Bookkeeping Specialization, with additional coursework in accounting and taxation.
