the kid.
I was born in 1997 in Nova Friburgo, mountain region of Rio de Janeiro, and I’ve always been passionate about creating.
Long before I knew what a timeline or a keyframe was, I was just a kid in Brazil obsessed with stories, music, poetry, and anything that could captivate me. If you had asked me at ten years old what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer would have ranged from filmmaking to music.
Deep down, what truly made my eyes shine was expressing myself through any form of art.

Nasci em 1997 na cidade de Nova Friburgo, interior do Rio de Janeiro. Sempre fui apaixonado por criar. Muito antes de saber o que era uma linha do tempo ou um keyframe, eu era apenas um garoto no Brasil obcecado por histórias, música, poema e tudo que me cativasse. Se alguém me perguntasse aos 10 anos o que eu queria fazer quando crescer, provavelmente a resposta poderia variar de cinema a musica, porque no fundo o que brilhava meus olhos era me expressar através de qualquer tipo de arte.

the storyteller.
At fourteen, I published a book I had spent the previous two years writing. It was my first professional milestone: 'Caçadores'—a fantasy novel of nearly 400 pages that took me to the 2013 Rio International Book Biennial. This wasn't just a childhood milestone; it was the definitive symptom of a lifelong purpose.
Like every artist, I simply wanted to be able to give the world my own form of expression.

Aos quatorze anos, publiquei um livro que havia passado os dois anos anteriores escrevendo. Era meu primeiro passo profissional, 'Caçadores' - um romance de fantasia de quase 400 páginas que me levou à Bienal do Livro do Rio em 2013. Isso não foi apenas um marco de infância; foi o sintoma definitivo de um propósito para a vida: como todo artista, eu queria ser capaz de entregar ao mundo minha própria forma de se expressar.
the music.
As a teenager, my purpose found a new medium: music. I dove headfirst into independent music productiowriting, recording, and mixing my own tracks. But releasing music demanded visuals. To launch my independent albums, I had to teach myself how to direct and edit my own music videos. That was my gateway into the audiovisual world. Today, music remains a vital hobby, but its impact is permanent: it taught me the rhythm, pacing, and synchronization that now dictate every single frame I animate. (A journey that has accumulated over 150,000 streams across YouTube and Spotify).

Na adolescência, meu propósito encontrou um novo meio: a música. Mergulhei de cabeça na produção musical independente, escrevendo, gravando e mixando minhas próprias faixas. Mas lançar música exigia conteúdo visual. Para lançar meus álbuns independentes, tive que aprender sozinho a dirigir e editar meus próprios videoclipes. Essa foi a minha porta de entrada no mundo audiovisual. Hoje, a música continua sendo um hobby vital, mas seu impacto é permanente: ela me ensinou o ritmo, o compasso e a sincronia que agora ditam cada frame que animo. (Uma jornada que acumulou mais de 150 mil streams entre YouTube e Spotify).

the first step.
My creative intuition met corporate discipline in my first formal role as an in-person video editor for an e-commerce company in Nova Friburgo. For eight months, while also studying Advertising and Marketing in college, I spent my days inside Adobe Premiere, learning how to sync artistic instinct with marketing strategies, tight deadlines, and commercial workflows.
It was the playground where I realized that visuals shouldn't just look good; they must communicate with a purpose.

Minha intuição criativa encontrou a disciplina corporativa no meu primeiro cargo formal como editor de vídeos presencial para uma empresa de e-commerce em Nova Friburgo. Por oito meses, enquanto também cursava Publicidade e Propaganda na faculdade, passei meus dias dentro do Adobe Premiere, aprendendo a sintonizar o instinto artístico com estratégias de marketing, prazos apertados e fluxos de trabalho comerciais.
Foi o laboratório onde percebi que o visual não deve apenas ser bonito, mas também deve se comunicar com um propósito.

Eventually, my path led me to Rio de Janeiro, where I officially bridged the gap between design and movement. Over the last few years, I’ve fully immersed myself in the universe of Motion Design and Post-Production. Today, freelancing under the creative signature 'The Framebender', I collaborate with various brands and clients to transform complex concepts into striking visual realities.

Eventualmente, meu caminho me levou ao Rio de Janeiro, onde conectei oficialmente a ponte entre o design e o movimento. Nos últimos anos, mergulhei totalmente no universo do Motion Design e da Pós-Produção. Hoje, como freelancer atuando sob a assinatura 'The Framebender', colaboro com diversas marcas e clientes para transformar conceitos complexos em realidades visuais marcantes.
Through it all, I am still guided by the exact same purpose that captivated me as a child:
to create something that lives inside me before it ever meets the world.
It’s about the feeling of sitting in front of a monitor,
completely consumed by my own creative process,
whether I was 15 writing a book or now in my twenties,
producing a video.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about my journey.
Feel free to explore the space and enjoy the work.
Por aqui, eu continuo sendo guiado pelo mesmo propósito que me cativava quando criança:
criar algo que nasça em mim antes de nascer pro mundo.
É sobre a sensação de estar sentado em frente a um monitor,
completamente debruçado no meu próprio processo criativo;
seja aos 15 anos escrevendo um livro, ou agora, aos 20 e poucos,
produzindo um vídeo.
Obrigado por dedicar um tempo para conhecer a minha jornada.
Fique à vontade para explorar o espaço e curtir o trabalho.
