Absolutely everything on this blog has been produced, edited, directed, or designed and sound designed by me, please look in the categories for specifics.
With a career spanning four decades, I entered the moving image industry in 1982 by working on a 16mm Bolex short film with my School Film Club. I later ventured into still photography in the 90s and finally obtained a BFA in Motion Picture & Television in 1999.
For the past 20 years, I have been actively involved with LOBO, working globally in various capacities such as managing, producing, crafting, curating, designing and helping establish the LOBO brand. Throughout my career, I have embraced industry advancements, from Silicon Graphics and Avid to Microsoft, Adobe After Effects, Toonboom, Maya, Nuke, Unity, Blender, and exploring AR, VR, XR, and beyond.
From my early days as an Editor and Broadcast Producer for the LATAM market, I progressed to become the Senior Executive Producer overseeing US and European projects with agencies worldwide such as TBWA Paris, Publicis, Havas, BBH London, 180 Amsterdam, Kessels & Kramer, Ogilvy & Mather NY, BBDO Energy, McCann Erickson, Arnold Worldwide, Deutsch LA to name a few and assumed the role of Global Head of Production. Additionally, I served as the Executive Creative Director for TBWA/Paris’ McDonald’s Happy character global marketing campaign for the past 10 years.
Presently, I am the Global Chief Growth Officer focused on delivering creative content for entertainment and advertising across all media platforms in Europe, Asia, USA and MEA. My strengths lie in strategic decision-making, visionary thinking, and meticulous attention to detail. Fluent in English, French, and Portuguese, I effortlessly handle a broad range of responsibilities.
I excel at implementing creative direction for animation, content, and new technologies, including effective branding concepts, IP, scripts, and online/offline ideas. As a dedicated team player, I am adept at hiring and managing diverse teams, collaborating with international freelance artists, directors, producers, designers, art directors, and animators to deliver exceptional results.
