About

I'm an Animation Professor at LUCA School of Arts, campus C-mine in Genk, Belgium. I teach at the Re:Anima Joint Master in Animation and I'm a senior researcher at the Genk Research Unit, in the 'Critical reflections of and through animation' cluster. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation. Previously, I was an Animation Professor at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. MFA and PhD by the Graduate Program in Arts at EBA/UFMG. I'm also a free software advocate, animator, rigger and I also like to code. You can see some of my works and know a bit more about me at:

Blender Animation Book

I've written a book about Rigging and Animation in Blender for Packt Publishing. You can get the files here.

Old Blog

Yes, I had a blog. Haven't updated it since 2011. Anyway, if you need something from there I have kept backwards compatibility and you can read it below.

Webinar with Carlos Baena

Animation Mentor has been producing some very cool "webinars".

The best of all is that they are recorded and everyone is allowed to watch them afterwards. Therefore, if you can't attend to it (be it by the requirement of using Windows or any other reason) you can watch (and re-watch) the presentation later.

The latest one was with the great Carlos Baena, where he gives a very good presentation on how to prepare a Demo Reel.

If you didn't know about those webinars, be sure not to miss the previous ones. =)
