Portfolio Enhancement

Combat Generative AI with Your Own Talent

This is not just a course; it's a high-performance audit. Under the direct supervision of Jaime Maestro, you will identify your portfolio's weaknesses and undertake specific exercises to maximize your potential and aspire to the Senior level demanded by major international film studios. Recommended for artists from all departments: Concept Art, Storyboard, Layout, Modeling, Rigging, Animation, or Lighting.

Course Syllabus

Technical and Narrative Audit

In-depth analysis of your current pieces. We'll identify what's superfluous, what's missing, and why recruiters aren't contacting you. We will map out a personalized roadmap based on your specialty.

Detection of fundamental technical errors
Analysis of narrative and editing rhythm
Goal definition (Role and Studio)
Piece selection strategy

Specialization and Stress Testing

Completion of brief but highly complex technical exercises. If you're a modeler, we'll delve into micro-topology; if you're an animator, into acting subtext. The goal is to create "magnet pieces" for your reel.

Specific exercises per discipline (Modeling, Animation, Rigging, etc.)
Supervision by Jaime Maestro at a "Film Director" level
Real production problem-solving
Work time optimization (Seniority)
