About Juan

I am known for my good disposition, good humor, and friendly demeanor. I studied audiovisual production and industrial design, and I have seven years of experience as an editor and cinematographer, four as a post-production coordinator, three as an animated graphics designer, and multiple experiences as a director, director of photography, screenwriter, consultant, and documentarian in audiovisual productions for major brands, production houses, and international organizations.

*I’m well known for being friendly and easy-going, I’ve studied industrial design and video production. Having worked as a professional designer and filmmaker for several years on projects for premium brands, multinationals corporations, international organizations such as the UN and a couple of production houses, I’ve always managed to offer high-value creative and artistic input, still aligned with each brand identity and communication goals. I’ve also worked as a project manager and art director but what I’m most proud of, is all the great relationships we manage to build with the people I’ve worked with.

    I led the international production of infomercials for home appliances, coordinating creative teams between the US and the EU with a focus that balanced audiovisual quality and budget constraints. I developed global briefings adapted to diverse markets, from Germany and France to Japan, Australia, and Latin America, implementing creative strategies for each cultural context.
