The main inspirations for the channel’s visual identity were Leonardo’s own teaching approach, which includes the use of anecdotes and jokes to engage the students’ interest, and his equivalent among the learners, that student who expresses humor through doodles in their notebook. See more:

Ariel Costa (AKA BlinkMyBrain), represented by Final Frontier, has directed the animation “High Energy Coin” for BMW China, in order to announce the launch of their commemorative virtual coins.
I was invited to design and animate a few scenes. The goal was to keep a bold and varied style, currently used in recent BMW China ads.
I was involved in a bunch of scenes, exploring different visual styles and animation tecniques. I mixed video footage, collage, cel animation and even some 3D elements!
