THE FULL PIECE IS HERE. German doesn't talk about climbing the way most people do. For him, it's not a sport you practice — it's a language you learn to speak with your body. That's what we wanted to capture. The first half is deliberate: static wide shots that hold the space, detail cuts that show the work behind the warmup. Intentional restraint before the release. Then the fade to black. What follows is the same athlete — same walls, same hands — but a completely different energy. The low-end of the beat dictates the cut. Movement becomes rhythm. He ends where he started. Sitting on the wall. The logo closes it. Shot and edited at his gym, built around his vision of the sport. Hope you like it !

BIRRIA. There's a version of food content that treats the dish as the star and rushes to get there. This isn't that. Birria is a slow process — layers of dried chiles, bones, hours of heat. The edit follows that logic. The music is slow, almost pre-Columbian, but the cuts don't drag. They move with the rhythm, not against it. Close on the clay pot. The char on the chiles. Hands working. The result feels warm. Domestic. Like something your grandmother would recognize even if she'd never seen a camera. Detail-first food cinematography, edited to feel like the dish tastes.

Capturing the human element behind major talent requires more than just technical execution; it demands emotional intuition. Alongside my team—Daniela Santamaria and David Salgado—we led the live content creation and event coverage for Universal Music artist Ela Tauber. Designed exclusively for her most dedicated fanbase, our objective was to break away from traditional corporate staging and deliver an authentic, raw, and intimate look at the artist. We focused on capturing her simplicity and natural essence, translating the energy of a live event into passion-driven, high-engagement content. This project allowed us to explore a deeply human approach to live production, proving that a brand's or artist's strongest asset is their authenticity. Managing real-time asset creation under the high pressure of a live music event further refined our agility and storytelling capabilities. I am eager to connect with innovative creators and brands on Contra to bring this same level of premium, human-centric visual direction to your upcoming projects.
