Oil Era
Álbum cover for an instrumental project.
The debacle and the excesses of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries:
weapons, blood, imperialism, oil, junk food ... all under a nice varnish of hypocrisy.
Beat Bear
3D Rigged Teddybear ready to animate, a waste of another job turned into a personal project.
Suite 609
Illustration for jazz instrumental album, the reason is the context, a mysterious suite in which there are monkeys behind the curtains, birds in the dressing room, and snakes under the bed.
Box + Dice
A series of illustrations for digital use that I made for 'Box + Dice', the challenge in this case was to achieve illustrations that matched perfectly with those that another designer had previously made, and that synthesized in a very graphic way a series of events to illustrate a historical timeline of the company.
Political campaign
Vector animation video for the regional election campaign from a well-known Spanish political party.
The target were young working women, and a series of measures included in the electoral program had to be presented in a didactic way,
and explain how these would have a positive impact in the economy of the region.
This was only part of hard work done over almost four months, thanks to the confidence of
'Cronistar', making the full communication of the candidate for regional president during the election campaign,
together with a very involved team.
The final result was very satisfactory.

Energy drink can design
Design for an energy drink prototype can that finally was not commercialized, but I like it.
identidad Corporativa

About me
"I'm 29, i've been working as a freelancer for 6 years, and all my life i've been in love with music, design, food and my mother"
Basically i use my skills in fields that complement each other, and that have in common its usefulness in the field of advertising, although if i have to keep something, what i'm most passionate about is composing music and making illustrations, when i'm doing either of these two things, time stands still (only in my mind, of course, i usually take into account the hours when charging: P).

Which designer worth his salt also does not like, at least a little, to mess around with a keyboard, a DAW, or an SP-Roland ...?
Never trust a designer who doesn't like music.
I do it under the pseudonym of "Stxners Music":
IN THE STUDIO ...
I also offer my music production services, for any purpose.
