I remember when I did a draw of a submarine, I was 7 years i think.. really proud of that drawing, and it had something special, I dont know what. I lost that drawing when I was dunno.. 12 or something.. I wish I didnt. It was handwritten in a4 page full of pencil colors, really good i remember.!!

I use digital 2d , drawing on digital tablet . I really like the feeling Its almost like 2d traditional, but you dont need to waste paper, and I think that It is very important in these years, and 2d traditional can use a looot of paper, 2d digital doesnt do that. The 1500 levels of pressure give me the sensation and trace of 2d traditional, and since I am using computers since childhood i feel reeeally confortable with digital mediums, so its great.!

I have what i am using now. the crane and the giraffe was made with a low-budget genius digital tablet, but with the prize awards of the crane and the giraffe, I could bought a great wacom intuos3, so i am very comfortable with these digital tablet, and also bought extra monitor so, I am really comfortable. I cant ask for more. maybe a distribution agent so I dont have to use so much time in that, and use more time drawing instead of managing my distribution.

I really like love stories, I think there is too much violence in real life to put violence in animation right now. The crane and the giraffe is my 1st animation, so o dont have more works where I can see a consistent subject, but I truly like to keep it simple. In drawing and in storytelling. I think its the best, simple love stories, with emotional content and not pretentious ideas. good honest characters where you can identify and share things with, be with them. I really like good honest guys to win.

I think its to get the final idea and really trust on that truly final idea, and its hard not to continue changing things. because you can continue working on one idea, but to stop and to say ok this is it, and to trust on that idea for months, thats hard for me. but if I can manage that and feel in love with that idea, I am really happy, I mean , if I get to that stage, its great, the most difficult had passed.

I consider my work media art since its made involving computers -for 2d digital drawing- editing and finish formato -dvd, video, etc-. I think difference between media arts and traditional fine arts has to do with mass media 2th century new media communication ways. artworks invented with or shown with technology from 20th century, I think a big place is occupied by the computer here, from scanning 2d traditional and reformating, changing properties, etc, or directly using cgi or artificial inteligence, sensors, etc. I think there are great things, like popular videowebs like youtube, where you can upload your own works to people around the world can watch it and feedback you. I think that is amazing, you are eliminating any intermediare, Its just your video and receptor any part of the world.. amazinng.

It must be a simple, not pretentious story, using 2d digital and truly handmade with no keyframes or automated effects. Thats the way i really want to tell my ideas.

Its not always the same, although I only made one animation, but it has to do with honest people showing true feelings where the audience can understand and take their side. I also like children as audience, They are so honest and I maybe my stories can make them laugh or express some kind of feeling, That is great.

Just people in the street, most of them at public transport, or even news at the newspaper. I always look for new things, even reading books can inspire me into new stories because they show you different points of view of situations that maybe you are already thinking of, or maybe reactions of characters that you couldnt imagine that helps you to create your own ideas, or changing situations in your head. Almost everything can be an inspiration for a new idea but most of all, people.

I was very influenced and inspired by the work of tamura shigeru, most of all phantasmagoria and glassy ocean where very motivating to start into animation. I think all the things that happens to every person influenced that person to do the things they do, so, maybe my family also has influenced me, and every cartoon or illustration that I liked and kept, or lost and feel sorry about it.. I dontknow, the important thing is that allthings that happens to us when we are growing are important for us to move like we move and make us one way and not some other way. so maybe all people things and phenomena has got -some biger and some smaller- influenced in our lifes.
