About

Hi, I’m Luis F. Simanca, a passionate CGI artist with over 15 years of experience in 3D animation and motion graphics. I’ve had the pleasure of working across Colombia, USA, Mexico, Spain, and Austria, leading animation teams and delivering creative projects in marketing and advertising. I love blending art, photography, and design with technology to bring ideas to life.

My work spans various exciting fields including film, television, video games, and ArchViz. I enjoy learning new tools and techniques, and recently I’ve been focused on training others in using AI for animation. I’m always eager to collaborate and experiment with fresh ideas in the 3D animation and VFX world.
