Hi there! I’m Mani Salguero, a Character / Look Development artist and permanent resident based in Vancouver. I take pleasure in every facet of the character creation process, infusing my touch into each step. You’ll often find me immersed in modeling, texturing, and grooming, as I have a deep appreciation for understanding the production pipeline and ensuring a seamless workflow I’m a master tutor in modeling and texturing at Animum Advance School, Dot, and The Lighting Academy. Currently, I’m contributing to the Star Wars show at ICON, and my portfolio includes work for the Naruto Franchise (Shapefarm-Bandai), Netflix, short films, and movies. Leading and directing projects has been a thrilling part of my journey. I’m constantly honing my skills; personal projects are my creative therapy every day. Check out my journey through the provided links.
