Old Skool is the New School! With that in mind we made this promotion where Ghost Whisperer’s star (Jennifer Love Hewitt) is our Ms. Pac Man, trying to establish a relation with the ghosts, but at the end she’s forced to escape from their annoyance. Everything here is Atari-related, the graphics, the animation, the sound design and that robotic voice that assures that Ghost Whisperer is a game…from beyond. - Recognition:

Sony 2010 Holidays Advices!
Sony Entertainment Television decided to provide its audience with sound advice to end the year on a high note. The best way we found to do this was reminding our viewers that they should adapt their new year's promises to their actual capabilities: it's better for everyone to accomplish a promise partially that ending up with nothing.

59th Emmys 2007
Trying always to turn our weaknesses into strengths, we could not oversee our ridiculous Emmy nominations/wins ratio. Profit and loss reports, pie charts, bullet points, percentages, and so on, were the inspiration for this campaign.

Dramedy
When you put together Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes or Brad Pitt and Angeline Jolie you get TomKat and Brangelina. So, what happens if you mix Drama and Comedy? Dramedy, a space where there's no need to only look at the dramatic side of an uncomfortable situation but also the funny one. With a colorful campaign you can see the results of these combinations and the both sides of a same scene in two important series from the channel.

Desperate Housewives - New Season
After 5 years, a lot of things have changed and many troubles have arisen in Wisteria Lane.

Fall 2006 - Survivor
One or two series out of ten usually make it to a second season. Based on this statistical figure, we have fun by creating a survival theme campaign where only the 'fittest' series make it through their first seasons and reach a good place in Sony Entertainment Television’s programming grid. Along with 'veteran' series, they’ve already lived the survival experience. Now they’ll fight for a new season.

AMA American Music Awards
We made this campaign making fun on the foreign origin of some of the artists nominated for the AMA’s, where there's no need to be an American to win an American Music Award. Their American rivals are trying to get them out of competition putting the aforementioned artists in unfavorable situations.

50th GRAMMY 2008
50 years is a lot of time if you pretend to lead a hectic musician's life as Britney Spears. Or will be short if you earn money as Madonna or Paul McCartney. But the truth is that you can see all these stars at the same event: the 50th Grammy Awards.

Grey's Anatomy Trivias
There are some unknown facts about the human body that can be found in encyclopedias; Just like their fingerprints, every person has a unique disposition of their taste buds, blondes have 15% more hair than brunettes, at 75 years old, an average individual has sex 4.239 times. Fortunately, in Grey's Anatomy, they seem to know very well this kind of facts and their implications.

Royal Pains - Tools
'The end justifies the means' this is the best way to describe Dr. Hank. The use of tools in an inappropriate way is one of the attributes of this particular 'freelance' doctor who attends rich and famous people. The depiction of an infography and a description helps to explain the ideal purpose of a tool and its interaction with its name in contrast with the alternative choice given by Dr. Hank, who is a perfect example of this well known aphorism.

Some mammals have problems to find a mate, this led us to make a promo where we can see the troubled individual going through the four stages of mating; 1. Female choice 2. Courtship 3. First contact and 4. What follows… Needless to say, any resemblance to any TV channels, is purely coincidental.

The Last Journey of Dalia
documental Intro
This short intro was created for a documentary that portrays the traditional burial of Dalia, a small girl from the Wayuu Tribe, an Amerindian ethnic group of the La Guajira Peninsula in northern Colombia and northwest Venezuela that believes that the life cycle doesn't end with death, but that a relationship with one's bones continues. The autochthonous iconography, symbology and other cultural references were used for the design of this intro.

The Ecologists
The Ecologists tells the story of a family who loves pets, but in a very twisted way.
From little Bonifacio to Grandma, everyone likes to torture the little animals. But the only one opposing the abuse is María, who along with his lucky dog, tries to save these little creatures from a death. The illustrations were done with colored pencils, letters cut from magazines and markers for the text.

Bacalao Men - Album Design
In 2004, Bacalao Men, a rock-bugaloo venezuelan band, needed a design for their upcoming album, the theme should be something related to the cultural icons from Caracas, the capital of our country. As an exercise for my design institute, ProDiseño, our teacher asked to experiment with the 'spaces' available in each page of the cd booklet, but only using typography and graphical elements in black & white. After that, I included some architectural elements and recognizable references from the city. Finally, original photography was added as a main element and I came to a satisfying result, but at the end, I think that the design process was the most important thing in this whole project.
