(WP1)___ANIMATION ADVENTURE

I´m a FREELANCER engaged in a special adventure. I would like to explore the animation business and prepare a successful portolio to promote myself as a DRAWING TEACHER.
 
All my work is focused on organizing LIFE DRAWING SESSIONS in a way that is specifically tailored to people interested in the fields of animation, illustration and conceptual design. My chief mandate is to provide a strong foundation in FIGURE DRAWING.
 
This blog is a DIARY with explanations and comments about my instructional methods. It will be a personal writing task designed to define my teaching style and show my LIFE STUDIES.

At the same time, this publication will help me to improve my English and prepare different MASTERCLASSES and TRAINING PROGRAMS.
 
TEACHING EXPERIENCE

MEETUP is a web site that helps people with shared interests plan meetings and form offline clubs in local communities around the world. Almost two years ago, Benet Ferrer created a LIFE DRAWING GROUP in Barcelona.

Since the first meeting I´m member of the organization team. My role is lead the sessions and help beginners to learn BASIC DRAWING TECHNIQUES.

The purpose of this club is to create a confortable and creative environment to enjoy LIFE DRAWING SESSIONS. We try to offer a space where SKETCHERS can feel confident with the process to draw the HUMAN FIGURE.

PROFESSIONAL CAREER

I began my professional career in a hand drawing animation studio from Barcelona (www.animandus.com). Although this studio is very specialised in publicity and advertising, they also work in the film business. There, I worked in two animated movies as an inbetweener;
" El rey de la granja", and "The cid, the legend".


I have worked in several TV commercials and I have done thousands of clean ups of this popular rabbit.


I have also worked in "IBOIX ESTUDI"; an illustration studio specialising in children´s books. IBOIX normally illustrates books based on popular Disney movies. Although I have personally never worked on a Disney´s project, I worked as PENCILLER drawing illustrations for Spanish encyclopedies.
