Hola! I’m Manu.

A motion designer focused on interactive motion, handcrafted animations and playful characters.

My work

Manu and I worked together on Ctuber, a novel interface for making cartoon videos using Rive. Working with him was fantastic: he is great with Rive, independent, easy to communicate with, and very responsive. He could produce incredible characters sometimes in just a few hours. Def looking forward to working with Manu again!

What I do

Interactive Motion

Interactive Motion

Reacting mascots, responsive illustrations, characters that guide users through your app. I work in Rive so those animations become part of the product, not a video that plays once and gets forgotten. If your app has personality, I want to animate it.

Character Animation

Character Animation

I animate characters that feel alive: expressive, with the right timing, the kind that makes users stop and look twice. As an animator first, my designs are built to move, not just to look good.

Storytelling

Storytelling

Whether it's a hero video, an onboarding or an app demo, I like to understand what the piece is trying to communicate before I start animating. I can adapt to an existing team or take ownership of the whole process, from script to final render.
