Since then he has worked as a 3D Animator in projects for studios such as Tinker Magic, B-Water Animation Studios or Alkimia Interactive.

YOU JOIN AS A TEACHER IN THE 3D ANIMATION AREA OF L’IDEM, HAD YOU IMAGINED IT WHEN YOU STUDIED AT THE SCHOOL?
The truth is that I did. Just like animation, I am also passionate about the world of education. So, what better way to combine my two passions!
WHY HAVE YOU JOINED THE L’IDEM TEAM FOR THE 2020-2021 ACADEMIC YEAR?
Well, before becoming a teacher at L’Idem I was a student. I know the effort that the whole team makes to improve year after year, their professionalism, the good atmosphere, their organization and the infrastructure they have. I think the students end up with a good level and I want to help all this talent to end up creating much more industry in our country.
YOU’RE COMING BACK TO THE SCHOOL AFTER A FEW YEARS. WHAT’S THE ATMOSPHERE LIKE?
The truth is that I feel very comfortable and the working environment is very good. For this academic year, the team at L’Idem has grown with new additions, both in the Animation and Design areas. The teachers are very motivated and I think this is transmitted to the students.
HOW DO YOU SEE THE STUDENTS AT L’IDEM?
Despite the current situation caused by the SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus, I see that the school’s students are motivated. They have adapted very well to the new situation and to the new work methodologies that we have applied. I see them very collaborative and eager to learn and make the most of their training at L’Idem. I think we are going to have great animators in the future!
HOW DO YOU APPROACH THE WORK WITH OUR STUDENTS?
The classes will have a theoretical part and a practical part where we will apply this theory and those learned previously. The theoretical part will be reinforced with audiovisual material easily accessible to the student, documentation collected from animation books such as The animator’s survival kit. In addition, when necessary, I will perform the exercise in class so that the students have a reference. In the practical part, the student will also be taught to comply with the presentation, methodology, organization, delivery times, etc. just like in an animation studio.
