Fierce dreamers
Visual Effects
BASED IN MUNICH
As a Supervisor, I help you identify and tackle the VFX of your film from the initial draft to the final pixel.
I am here not just to finish your film, but to help build it better by providing the essential structure and workflow your production needs.
By connecting departments and ensuring a seamless flow of information, I work closely with the Director and DoP to refine or help to define their vision for the visual effects. On set, I ensure every VFX sequence is shot to maximize its impact and that all necessary data is accurately captured, so that vendors can focus entirely on making the final shots look spectacular.
If you need a Producer who understands both the budget and the creative process—or a single partner to handle both roles for a smaller production—let’s talk. I bring order to the chaos, from initial script breakdowns to creating detailed bidding packages that ensure you are always comparing "apples to apples." Whether I’m managing a specific phase or your entire VFX budget from start to finish, I keep you informed, ahead of the curve, and on budget.
Not every production needs a full-time hire, but every production needs a plan. I provide expert insight on a targeted basis for filmmakers navigating specific technical hurdles, script feasibility, or vendor evaluations. Whether it’s a one-time project audit or ongoing strategic advice, I help you make informed decisions that provide clarity and precision without the overhead of a full-time role.
Yes... that one too. We haven't reached the point where you can simply "prompt" a masterpiece into existence, but AI is already a powerful ally. I integrate AI into the workflow where it can genuinely boost productivity and creativity, while carefully navigating the complex landscape of technical quality and copyright. My goal is to ensure these tools serve the story and the budget without compromising the integrity of the image, always keeping human craft at the center of the process.
Hi, I'm Manuel. I’m a VFX Supervisor, Producer, and Consultant dedicated to helping filmmakers do more with less.
I’m driven by the belief that the best visual effects happen in pre-production, not post. My role is to bridge the gap between imagination and execution — not just to "fix" your film, but to help you build it better from day one. With a background spanning over 15 years of industry experience, I focus on creating workflows that protect the creative vision while respecting the bottom line.

Every project starts with a conversation. Whether you have a locked script or just a wild idea that seems "too expensive" to pull off, reach out. I’d love to help you find the smartest way to get it on screen.
