I am also a co-founder of WarmWhite, specialized in advanced dynamic lighting control for film sets, and Aural Stage, dedicated to virtual production and LED volume lighting integration with Unreal Engine — pioneering next-generation in-camera visual lighting in Spain.

WarmWhite.
Alongside my work as a gaffer, I am a co-founder of WarmWhite, a project focused on on-set lighting control via DMX.
The idea: patch, program, and operate all lighting on set from a single system — engineered to streamline the lighting crew's workflow while ensuring a precise control for every scene.
Let's shoot.
Available for commercial and feature film shoots worldwide. Drop me a line to discuss schedule, crew, and lighting.
