What’s up! I’m Yamell Mateo, the author of this website. I’m a professional Architect based in the Dominican Republic with an extreme passion for CGI and Visual Effects (VFX). I’ve work in countless music videos, commercials and local films as a VFX artist and sometimes as a director too, although it is safe to say that I was not a very good director since always focused more on the post production part, like adding 3D objects, exploding stuff, removing things from a shot… and sometimes I didn’t care too much if the shot was missing something because I knew I could “fix it in post”, so little by little I let go of directing and focus only on VFX. With time, I crafted my skills and I have to say, It hasn’t been easy but it has been VERY exciting. I still got a long way to go in terms of learning, but I’m going to share my journey with you and hopefully learn from each other.
I’m going to be posting VFX related content as well as Arch Viz, PC setups, news and all that good stuff. Stay Tuned!
