"Art is not just talent, but above all courage." Glauber Rocha
Filmmaker and visual effects artist, I am a partner in Bactéria Filmes, a producer of original audiovisual content and in Forno FX Pós-Produção Cinematográfica, a visual effects and motion design studio. Graduated in graphic design (Fadergs), post-graduated in Cinema and audiovisual language (Estácio) and MBA in entrepreneurship, start-up and innovation (Unisinos).
Member of the Brazilian Film Academy since 2017, with over 16 years of experience in the audiovisual industry I have signed numerous projects for TV, such as weekly shows, advertising films and series.
I started my career as a film director making experimental short films, music videos and webseries in 2005. My first short films "Cubes" and "Wings" were awarded at the 2008 International Minute Festival and were exhibited at MASP - São Paulo Art Museum Assis Chateaubriand. They were also part of the itinerant exhibitions "Cidade" and "Acabou a Gasolina", both released in DVD.
In 2007 I took over the direction of videos for the educational portal "Qued - Qual é a Dúvida?" and a year later I created the series "Qued na TV" which had the first episode selected for the Pilots Showcase of the International Television Festival in 2009.
Between 2009 and 2011 I created, directed and produced the 65 episodes of the weekly program "Galera de Atitude" (65x60"), aired on the educational channel TVE/RS.

In recent years the documentary series "Vida Fluxo" (5x25" 2017) and "Teatro de Rua (R)Existe" (5x25" 2016) were shown in important channels in Brazil. In 2019, I debuted as a general director in animation projects with the release of the series "Inventing Games" (13x7").
And in 2020, I began my trajectory in feature film writing and directing the film "Contos do Amanhã" (85") which had its premiere in the competitive exhibition of features of the 48th Gramado Film Festival. So far the film has participated in more than 26 festivals around the world, especially the Other Worlds Film Festival in Austin, USA, where it was invited to be the closing night film.
Recently I won Best Debut Director and Best Cinematography at the Madras Independent Film Festival held in Chennai, India, Best Production Design at the Other Worlds Film Festival held in Austin, USA, Best Visual Effects at The International Moving Film Festival in Iran, Best Cinematography at the Miami International Sci-Fi Film Festival, besides 6 awards for Best Sci-Fi Feature Film at different festivals.
