Hi! My name is Francisco Pacheco and I'm an animator.
I'm currently looking for a job in the industry. But meanwhile I'm reinforcing my skills, working as a freelancer, modeling professor, very happy to be a volunteer on MILA Project, and a story teller (or I like to believe so) more on will be shown that on later work.
I have a strong passion for films, specially animated ones. I'm working on several personal projects that I'll post here in the future, so in a few more months be prepared to get your mind blown. Meanwhile, you can enjoy some of my work.

A picture of how my workplace looks now that I’m in the middle of writing a script. And ummmm yeah one of my dogs “helping”.
I haven’t blogged about this but I’m excited that last month I was accepted as a volunteer on MILA FILM PROJECT. This is an animated film by Cinzia Angelini that is being developed by more than 100 volunteers around the world. I wanted to help in layout for experience and because I love the style.
Well what got me really exited today is that I checked the site and I saw that my name was all ready on the crew page
in layout.
If you are a 3D artist and have some time this is a good project to help and master more skills, again HELP it feels awesome to do so!
Visit www.milafilm.com for more information.
For a while I have been thinking about making a 2d animation and integrate it in a 3d program to see the possibilities of the cameras, composition and depth. Today I guess I started with the first baby step of checking that out. A looooong way to go for this experiment but I’m really exited!

A sneak peak of one of my test renders from a part of my portfolio and new creations. Just letting you know this is a Work In Progress so changes will definitely be made!
