Alvaro Claver - Visual Effects Artist

Originally from Madrid, Spain, I am a lead visual effects technical director, specialized in texturing and lookdev for films, currently working at DNEG (Vancouver). I'm also an in-campus instructor and mentor at Think Tank Training Centre where I teach how to digitally paint and render assets and characters with an emphasis in production quality for film.

You can see my work on these feature films: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Spider-Man: No Way Home, Ultraman (Netflix), Fast X, Black Widow, Morbius, Avengers Endgame, Captain Marvel, Avengers Infinity War, Thor Ragnarok, A Wrinkle in Time, The Rescue; on the following TV series: Mandalorian Season 3 (Disney+), Wandavision (Netflix), Lost in Space (Netflix), Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (Netflix); on the following game cinematics: Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Destiny 2: Forsaken, Star Wars: Rise to Power, Command & Conquer Rivals.

Classically trained in Fine Arts, my background includes working as cameraman, photographer, photography director, video editor and paparazzi. I have traveled around the world several times shooting documentaries and eating tasty food. So far I have lived in 5 different countries and made bad jokes in every single one of them.

Fun facts: I'm a multipotentialite, day dreamer, vegetarian, and a metal head. Oh, and I also like funny looking birds. Specially chickens. Chickens are awesome. Puk Puk Pukaaak!
