Working with Painting Practice I had to design the Valdac spaceship...unfortunately it explodes in the minute three of the episode...but it was a fun design :)

I do like to work in pitches: you have a short time to try something, usually challenging, without all the production restrictions. It is fun, creative and intense. I am specially proud of this one: Two weeks to do a shaman in a world dominated by mechanical animals. I have designed and modeled the skull-Helmet working with the amazing Jacob Gonzalez who was doing the textures and shaders for it. Lead, Character texture and rendering was Cesar Nunes. The Character modeler was Alex Huguet and Manuel Perez was doing the Comp. For me these guys are a "dream team".  

I had the opportunity to join Passion Pictures and work in this "unike" (LOL) project "The Last Game".

It was a great challenge: To design, model, texture and light this sequence with this massive ancient steps inside of a cave populated with the statues of the players. The camera was going from very wide angles to really close shots, so the models and textures needed to work for both situations. On top of that, and as usually happens, the layout was changing everyday so we needed a very flexible sistem to work.

I end up modelling and texturing in Hi-res just small variation of stones, bricks and ornaments so I was able to use them as if I was building the temple “stone by stone”. Combining them, I had detail enough to make work the close ups, and flexibility to modify on the fly the constrction of the elements to fit the any Layout requirements.

For this sequence I worked with Christian Mills who was the lighting supervisor. He did the Layout for my shots, and gave me quite useful advice about the design.

It was reaaaaaal fun. Good memories!!! and 86 million visits in youtube!!!

Living in London, in my case, was all about commuting. But some days, not all, I did enjoyed it. I can share some of the drawings I did. PD the big one wasn't a commute drawing, it was a coffee drawing...definitely a long coffee

Last 3 years I have been part of The amazing world of Gumball´s crew ( amazing people for an amazing project) working in the 1st and 2nd season of the show,  making 3D assets to create footages or backgrounds that involves sometimes only Matte Painting, sometimes 3D, most of the times a mix between them.... You can find more examples of my work and  breakdowns here.      

We made 22 bumpers for CANAL+. I made most of the animatics, and in some of them, the final animation. I looked after the render in half of them as well. oh mama what a project!.... You can see some of them in the links below:                                                                                              .CANAL+ action       CANAL+ sports     CANAL+events

I did a fan art poster for a (obviously fake) Fernando Alonso movie. The Racing monster..haha..very 80´s! For the design of the Monster car (a mix between a formula 1 and a tractor) I used gravity sketch...in vr. 3d playful again!
