Work Experience

Freelance

Motion Designer and Character Animator

My work experiences in the animation industry on cable, TV and cinema, have allowed me to specialize my range of action within the 2D graphic animation (and sometimes 3D), offering technical solutions and according to the needs and aesthetic standards of each client.

My excellent relationship with previous employers has given me the opportunity to continue working with them independently on several occasions.

Within Titan Post, I was part of collective projects where much or all of the animations ran on my own. I was free to propose styles and solutions to solve technical and aesthetic problems. On several occasions I led the animation style to follow for the rest of the group of animators.

Outstanding projects were carried out for TV networks in the United States and Latin America such as Disney Channel, NBC and Sprout. Also pieces of high relevance and remembrance were performed in the Latin American market (such as DirecTV) and Venezuelan (Cines Unidos, Cinex, Ford, ValeTV, and others)
