About the author: Born Jorge Seva in 1979, he adopted “Alex Roman” name as an artistic alias for publishing commercial work. After being trained in traditional painting at a few academies, he discovered this other world called CG. With his shortfilm "The Third & The Seventh" - which received numberless acknowledgments and awards worldwide-, it opened a new whole world of film/advertising opportunities. Leaving behind the architectural years, Alex won a Cannes Film Craft Gold Lion in the year 2011 for the Silestone brand commercial: “Above everything else” - both showcased and awarded in Evermotion. In the year 2011 he also supervised more than 20 vfx shots for the acclaimed David Fincher’s feature “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”. Alex’s work has been featured in Motionographer, FilmPro magazine, Filmnosis and FXGuide among others.
