TV Series & App [PT-BR]
When technology guru Jonas Marra hosts a contest in his homeland, Brazil, to find a successor for his company, young hackers desperately compete to prove their worth.
As a writer and transmedia expert, I worked with writers, directors, actors, and editors; and co-created the transmedia app, Filma-e.
The show's transmedia app achieved over half a million downloads during the 2014 Soccer World Cup and earned a nomination for the International Digital Emmy Award for Digital Program: Fiction.
Documentary Film
In partnership with directors, Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky, I translated and subtitled the film to Brazilian Portuguese.
I also produced the Brazilian theatrical premiere of the documentary along with the international performances of chiptune artists, No Carrier and Nulsleep from 8bitpeoples.
Winner of the Editing Award at Sundace Film Festival.
Wonderbox Show
Webseries
A transmedia web series based on the game Wonderbox where I take on the role of showrunner, host, producer, and writer to present segments all the way from tutorials to gameplay sessions and interviews.
Age of Defiance
Transmedia Animated Motion-Comic
Age of Defiance is an animation short that takes place in the world of the game Sword Legacy: Omen. It is based on a lore document players can find in the game and expands the story of warrior Britannia's rise to power by revealing a bit more of Broken Britannia's history.
I wrote the script and directed the voice actors.
Animated Documentary Short
Discover the wonders of animation as the eccentric bard, Ludobardo, takes you on a journey through the history and evolution of video games.
I was the director, screenwriter and voice actor for the protagonist/narrator, LudoBardo.
Premiered at the International Anima Mundi Festival as the featured short for all video game related activities and sessions.
Collaborative Variety TV Show [PT-BR]
Hosted by Lazaro Ramos, this creatively crowdfunded TV series started via open online participation mediated by its writers and evolved into a variety series on national television broadcast by TV Globo.
As screenwriter, I conceived and published creative challenges, received materials sent by users via the show’s website, and wrote scripts for the thematic episodes inspired and/or intertwined with user's content.
Variety & Game Show [PT-BR]
Hosted by Otaviano Costa, accomplished senior athletes over 60 years (some even Olympic medalists!) impress by competing against young contenders in challenging trials in this show by TV Globo.
As screenwriter and game designer, I was responsible for writing the episode scripts, designing the challenges, interviewing the athletes and working with editors.
