Academic / Professional project

Nicolás y el patito migrante

The Digital Arts school from Tecnológico de Monterrey, along with migrant home Casanicolás, collaborated in 2021 on a project aimed at the children from Casanicolás.

The project consisted of creating concept art and mock ups for Casanicolás' story book "Nicolás y el pajarito migrante" (Nicolás and the migrant bird).

In this project, I worked along other Digital Arts students to come up with an idea for a comic book inspired by Casanicolas' story book.

Through character design explorations, and further discussion with the art team and Casanicolás, the bird in our comic book is a duck, thus renaming the story "Nicolás y el patito migrante" (Nicolas and the migrant duckling).
