If you told me a months ago that After Effects would be my ticket from Argentina to California, I wouldn’t have believed you. 🇦🇷 ✈️ 🇺🇸
Grateful for every keyframe and every late night that led me here.
The journey is just beginning. Thanks Contra 🖤
Such a long but exciting trip, congratulations! Saludos desde Argentina
That’s amazing, Jere — congrats! Love seeing how dedication to the craft can open doors like this. Wishing you the best for the journey ahead.
Thanks, Abhiram! It’s definitely been a grind, but seeing it pay off like this makes every hour worth it. Really appreciate the support!
Yes mate Congrats once again !!!

Thanks for sharing Jere! I know that many freelancers balance hope with doubt every day. Stories like yours remind us to keep pushing, believe in yourself and enjoy the journey! 🙌
Thank you! You’re so right, the freelance path is a rollercoaster of doubt and hope, but moments like these make it all worth it. Appreciate the kind words!

After Effects as a one way ticket from Argentina to California. That story is legendary. Keep going!
Thanks so much, Stephanie! It still feels a bit surreal, but those keyframes really did pave the way 😃
From Argentina to California through keyframes — that's one of the most inspiring things I've read today. Keep going Jere!
THis is inspiring, keep up the good work champ
Thanks, Tolu! Keeping the momentum going. Appreciate the support!
Out of all the disciplines & tools, framing in after effects takes it's toll on processor power, patience and all those late nights.
I take my hat off to the ones like this, but I also hope you get to enjoy some of that Californian sunshine <3
Haha, you know the struggle! My processor (and my eyes) definitely earned this trip. I'm definitely making sure to soak up some of that West Coast sunshine. Thanks, Matthew! ☀️
Congratulations
meeting you there soon😊
What a day, though. Beautiful. Congrats man.

I recently wrapped this spec project capturing the atmospheric essence of Chile. My primary challenge was "Style Locking"—ensuring that the color grade and lighting remained consistent from the wide-scale landscapes to the intimate macro details of the horse gear.

I spend the past 3 years working for a Swiss company called SmarDex.io (Now Everything.inc) on their online brand identity with design, motion and video.
In the beginning stages, the brand was not showing the true value of their products. I helped with building the professional look & feel, resulting in new investors and position them in the blockchain space as true professionals, which they are.
They recently went to pre-market with their new token called $EV which reached went from 40M$ to 100M$ Marketcap in a few hours.
Having a professional look is everything in this space.
I'll share the results of this rebrand soon.
Well done, Tim, cheers to more achievement of works.
