Bio

"I started to study computer engineering and soon I change to advertising, photography and music. After a BA in Advertising, studied at film school in Madrid, and began to shoot my short-films on my own. I like to think that although the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, never travel in a straight line."

With a background in photography, advertising, film and music, he has a wide experience developing new kind of audiovisual formats using the Internet as main window.
