Teacher Plus
Animation Director and Digital Artist

Federico Moreno is passionate about the freedom that animation gives him to bring his imagination to life and give shape to a story, compared to other audiovisual fields. With over twenty years of professional experience, he admits today that most of what he has learned was self-taught, after endless hours of practice, tutorials, and videos.

He has directed Mcfly Studio since 2005, a studio specialized in animation and audiovisual production, where his two sides of expertise meet: the artist and producer. In 2012, he founded the animation magazine Moushon!, a project that he led for two years, and Luty Art Studio alongside Nelson Luty, an art department dedicated to conceptual art for the film industry, animation, and video games.
