About me
I’m Mano — Art Director and 3D Motion Designer.
Italian–Brazilian roots, professionally seasoned in England, now based in Spain.
I help projects uncover their visual identity — not just a style, but a position.
My role is to distil the core idea, define a clear visual language, and guide teams towards a coherent and compelling outcome.
A generalist by nature, I move fluidly across the entire process — from concept development and visual strategy to hands-on animation and compositing, as needed.
I care deeply about the craft. In an age of accelerated tools and automation, I choose to stay close to the making — not out of nostalgia, but because meaning is built through decisions. Every frame is a constructed world shaped by deliberate choices. Defining, refining, and standing behind each one — that responsibility is where I feel most alive.
