About Me

 

I am a Barcelona-based, 15+ years experienced 3D artist, with a degree in live-action filmmaking, but, overall, I'm a full time digital tinkerer, always exploring new avenues in the digital field. 

​

I completed my studies at ESCAC (Barcelona film school) and specialized in postproduction. Over the years, I've acquired extensive experience working as a 3D artist on several commercials, music videos and feature films. As you can see in my portfolio, I worked on "Death, Love & Robots" for Netflix,  on Amazon's "The boys", on "Just Dance 2022" and on the live-action trailer for the upcoming "Ghost Recon". In the advertising field, I've worked on commercials for Footlocker, BBC, Chanel, Shisheido, Macallan, Dunkin Donuts, Ford, Seat, among many other.

​

Although I can be considered a 3D generalist (mostly because I learnt how to do everything for my own projects), I've specialized in motion design and particle simulations. You can see the kind of work I enjoy doing taking a look at my Instagram, a mix of technical+artistic approach to 3D.

​

I also have experience as a live-action director. I made a few short films and a docu-feature film for cinemas, shot in stereo3D, with exclusive screenings for high schools.  You can see my filmmaker reel here

I've worked as a live-action cinematographer for small projects, you can see a reel here

​

I created the opening titles for the historical TV show "Counts of Barcelona". These titles were an Official Selection on the South by Southwest (SxSW 2018) film festival hold in Austin, Texas. 

​

I also create 3D illustrations. You can check my Artstation profile. 

​

I'm an avid gamer and love videogame cinematic intros with a passion.
