About Me

Name: arturo

I have been professionally involved in art and technology since 1965 in fields such as film, special effects cinematography, theater, puppetry, computer graphics and New Media. Before joining Ithaca College I taught at Digital Worlds Institute, was Special Effects Supervisor for SZM, the premier broadcast studio in Munich, Germany, in charge of visual effects. I designed the virtual reality environment for Paramount’s production “Virtuosity”, starring Denzel Washington and Rusell Crowe. I was Creative Director for the broadband division of R/ GA and Associates in NY and Vice-President of Creative at Agency.com in NY where I worked for Fortune 500 clients. I have been involved in the game industry since 1988 as a designer and art director for companies such as Electronic Arts, Brøderbund and Sierra Online, bringing my special effects film experience into the game world. My current interests include robotics and animatronics and bridging the virtual with the real world.
