Carlos R.
Visual Development Artist | Concept Art & Look Dev
I help projects look like themselves, with a clear, cohesive visual identity from concept through final image. Whether you're building a game, producing an animated series, or launching a cinematic trailer, I can define the visual direction or execute within one that's already set. My work spans keyframes, concept art, look development, background painting, and compositing. Credits include Bungie, Luma Pictures (Marvel, Disney+), and projects recognized at Cannes and the Children's & Family Emmy Awards. I've worked on everything from AAA game cinematics to indie music videos. The scale changes, the craft doesn't. If you need someone who can make your project look intentional and production-ready, let's talk. What I work on: - Keyframes & concept art (characters, environments, props) - Look development & texturing - Background & matte painting - 2D/3D animation - Compositing & VFX integration
