A course by Ezequiel Torres
Ezequiel Torres has been working in the animation industry for over ten years. He started out doing editing work in Photoshop at a small studio, and, before long, he picked up some animation tricks in After Effects too. In 2011, he worked for Flamboyant Paradise, where he had the opportunity to learn from Tonio Quairiat and Javier Lourenço.
His career and experience culminated in him founding his own studio, Rudo, together with Pablo Roldán. For each commissioned piece, they strive to create animations that hook the viewer. In 2017, their video The Wolf went viral. The work that went into creating the dynamic shots for this video allowed Ezequiel to sharpen his vision of narrative shots, rhythm, and character emotion.
