Well, I am a 23 year old from Sao Paulo Brazil, and was raised basically watching movies. I always had a passion for visual audio. Being Cinema, Television, Commercials, VideoClips, I always loved the combination and the mix of visual, and music.

I speak four languages (Portuguese, French, Spanish, and English). I come from a multi-cultural family but was raised in Sao Paulo and I consider myself Brazilian.

I'm currently living in Los Angeles, trying out my lucky on the World of Cinema. I almost had the luck of signing with a commercial director but it didn't work out. There is a lot of things involved on the process and a lot of risks for both sides therefore I continue looking for an opportunity.

I have a passion for nostalgia and that's what I like to film in a spontaneous way.

My favorite filmmakers are: Walter Salles, Jean Pierre Jeunet, Guilhermo Del Toro, Alfonso Cuarón, Michael Mann

My favorite Movies: Central do Brasil, Amelie, Children of Men, Magnolia, The Insider.

Tutorial: Case Study with Html5 + CSS3
Last month I did a talk at the Campus Party, one of the biggest technology events of the world, talking about Fireworks, HTML5 and CSS3. It was very nice, the receptivity of the audience was sensational, and thinking that many of you would also like to see the contents of the workshop, so decided to write a full case study and share here on the blog.
