Biography

Passionate about light, whether in photography, cinematography or in CGI. Since I was a child, I’ve always dreamed of working making the movies and videogames that I loved: The Iron Giant, TLOZ Majora’s Mask, Half-Life... So I decided to study an audiovisual communication degree at University of Granada and after that I get specialized in Cinematography at ESCAC. In that period I discovered my love for photography, color, and overall lighting. Finally, In 2020 I decided to embark on a new journey and start a new career joining my passions: cinematography, 3D animation and videogames. I started this travel focusing at 100% in a Master's Degree in Lighting a Compositing with Maya, Arnold and Nuke at Animum. Now, with the result of this effort, I'm ready to keep improving my reels and skills and look for new and exciting job opportunities in the industry.
