Available to hire
Hi, I’m Martín Serrano, a multimedia specialist with a passion for storytelling through film and visual effects. I’ve had the opportunity to work on a range of projects from promotional videos for well-known brands in Ecuador to documentaries that explore meaningful themes like migration and belonging. I love collaborating with creative teams to bring ideas to life with dynamic editing and innovative visuals.
With a background working internationally, including in Switzerland and the USA, I bring technical skills in editing, VFX, and 3D animation paired with a strong creative vision. Whether directing short films or working in post-production on larger projects, I strive to create engaging content that connects with audiences on an authentic level.
