I've been working in the Entertainment industry since 1999 after studying Visual Communication Design.
Today i work as a Concept Artist / Designer and Key Art Illustrator in Art Departments or for VFX after many years as a Matte Painter and 3D Artist.
In my spare time i practice traditional drawing, painting and photography, and experiment with music and sound design.

In 2008 i was honored to receive a VES AWARD in Los Angeles for leading a team of VFX artists on a BBC TV Series.

"Marco has been a highly sought after artist in the Commercials and Feature Films industry for many years. After studying Industrial Design, he started his career working as a Visual Effects Artist. Marco quickly concentrated his work on Look Development and Design, combining his expertise in 3D computer graphics, digital painting and traditional photography to create photo-real and unique images. Projects he worked on received awards like Bafta, Gold Clio and AICP, and in 2008 he won a Visual Effects Society Award for leading the work on a BBC TV Series."
