About our founder
Expertise with a background in Hollywood
Raúl began his career in Hollywood collaborating on the Physical and Mechanical Effects of ‘Terminator 3’ at Stan Winston Studios. Stan Winston is responsible for the creation of the main characters of the 80s and 90s (Terminators, Jurassic Park, Predators, Alien, etc).
From there he moved to London, where he dedicated himself to designing robots for Digital Special Effects and collaborating with various art projects in the area.
Two years later he moved to Rome to work as an industrial designer in Cartoni, a leading company in professional camera accessories for cinema and TV, obtaining a world patent for one of his designs.
In 2011, he was a fundamental part of the team that created the Special Effects for ‘Gravity’, winner of seven Oscars, including that of Special Effects. He was in charge of researching and developing part of the technology that made it possible for us to live the 3D experience of a ship adrift in space without moving from the cinema seat.
