Why did you decide to become a freelancer?

I decided to become a freelancer because I wanted to be able to manage my time, choose which jobs to take and have the possibility to work with different studios. I am interested in knowing their processes, collaborating with different people and understanding how they work. I like the diversity and freedom that freelancing offers.

What do you enjoy most about your job?

What I like most is that, at times, it doesn't feel like work. It's something I really enjoy, it's fun to do, and the time flies by when I'm creating. Plus, I love that people see and share what I do; that's incredibly stimulating.

What advice would you give to someone starting out as a freelancer?

I believe that this job cannot be structured in a rigid schedule. The best thing to do is to make the most of the moments of concentration, even if that means working late. I also learned that more time in front of the computer does not always mean more productivity. It is essential to rest and recharge your batteries because, when you are fresh, you work much better.

What do you like most about Findie?

The best thing about Findie for me is that I can receive proposals without having to constantly look for them. That's a great advantage, as it allows me to concentrate on my creative work while the opportunities come in.

Let's talk about your project, L'usine des perversions. What is it about?

It's a project I'm very passionate about. The story is set in the ruins of a country that used to be developed but is now devastated by a long war conflict. A group of workers work in a factory where routine does not quench their desires. These are unleashed in a risky environment, under the omniscient gaze of the Usina, a gigantic machine that feeds on human desire. It is a narrative with a lot of meaning and a visual proposal that excites me deeply.
