D&AD Student Awards ‘09 entry
11 May '09, Uncategorized .
Since last year, I was really interested in the D&AD awards, this year I saw the briefs for the student awards and since I’m still studying I decided to do the entry for the brief “Monkey – Pigsy in Space” music video.
I really worked hard on this one but unfortunately didn’t make it, I know it’s not perfect and I think that was the problem with it.
Some times I like to think that the mail got messed up and my entry was delivered to another place. But what I really think that happened was their bad on-line system , it was impossible for me to choose the mentor and the team members, I waited for some days to got a reply from them and I think a lot of people had the same issue as this because they sent an e-mail regarding this situation , tried to contact them, and just got an e-mail hours before the deadline and that day was the last to send it for the people not living in the UK.
I took my chances to send it with this issue with my entry don’t know what happened.
In the other hand im very pleased to hear my friend’s opinion about it, specially with the one of my girlfriend and my brother. =)

Carlos invited me again to work with him in this supa’ cool video!
I was asked to do an intro for a late 70’s- 80’s tv show, and also to design the logo for the show, which first was “The Tom Banks Show” but later it was “The Tom Heuer Show”, the intro didn’t make it to the final cut, but the result of this new video is awesome! i’m so happy being part of it

Ráfagas Miradas 2 contest!
11 May '09, Contests, Madrid, RTVE, Rafagas, Spain .
Grace got this really cool idea for the contest by mounting a stage in a table with toys, cardbox, clay and even a carrot!
Tthose days we couldn’t get the chance to record the video with a good camera, but she did a great job doing the color correction, the fire and laser effects while I did the animation frame by frame using this time Flash, and also I did the hot rod monster(which I’m definitely going to draw more of them soon!) using Illustrator and Corel Painter, the result is this! I love it!

Imagine Cup 2008 France
07 October '08, Contests .
So i was trying to achieve something in the Imagine Cup since the 2006 the one in India, that time it was a different category ( Interface Design ), next year me and my partner decided to enter the Short Film Category since we were having this class of 3d animation , we did a great job in the 1st round (storyboard) unfortunately we ended being out of the competition just for 2 points that we needed to advance.
We thought that was going to be our last year since we were graduating, but we read the rules many times and we had another chance to enter to our last imagine cup, we did a great job with the storyboard, they selected us to be one of the 30 teams in the 2nd round, we didnt sleep for a month and we managed to do a great animation short film, which result in us going to the finals in Paris.
A lot of hard work going on with a new short film done in just 36 hours for the final round but finally we won the 2nd Place! =D
