This is my "nickname" since I started my carreer in the VFX industry quite a long time ago and it's also the name of my own company when I freelance all around the world.
Why this nickname?! It's a long story... I will explain you if and when we will eventually meet in person :-)
Experienced VFX/CG Supervisor | Beta-Tester, Mentor & Content Creator | 20 Years of Transforming Imagination into Reality 🎬✨
As an experienced VFX & CG Supervisor and former 3D Generalist, with over two decades of hands-on experience in the dynamic world of CGI and VFX,
I have successfully navigated diverse landscapes, from commercials and advertising to movies, TV series, and animation.
My journey has honed both my artistic finesse and technical prowess, allowing me to create visually captivating experiences while maintaining meticulous attention to detail.
My multidimensional approach has sculpted me into an agile VFX/CG Supervisor with a profound problem-solving acumen.
With an astute ability to dissect every facet of production, I craft efficient solutions to expertly lead and supervise diverse artistic teams.
What sets me apart is my unwavering passion for staying on the cutting edge of industry innovation.
As a dedicated beta tester for pivotal software solutions, I eagerly embrace emerging tools, technologies, and methodologies.
My primary focus revolves around sculpting innovative and optimized workflows that seamlessly integrate into pipeline architecture, enhancing VFX work efficiency and elevating the final product quality.
Since many years I started to create tutorial and to partecipate to mentorship programs to help younger generation to learn and grow in the industry. So, beginning of 2024, I finally created my mentoring brand PXLmentor.
I supervised small, medium and big production; diretly on set, on remote or "just" leading my team, but always with one main goal in mind... QUALITY.
Always searching for the best tools available on the market I managed to become beta tester for some of the biggest software companies out there. To name a few: Foundry (Katana), Allegorithmic/Adobe (Substance), and R3DS (Wrap3D).

"Cristian joined our X-Men: Dark Phoenix team as its 2nd CG Sup. He was new to the company as well as the project. He used his charm, wits and experience to find his feet and start contributing to his assigned sequences very quickly. It was a steep learning curve with a lot of pressure, but he handled it well. I enjoyed our collaboration and look forward to working together sometime."
Senior VFX Supervisor & Academy Award Winner
"Cris is tenacious and out-spoken in pursuit of the best possible creative and technical outcome for his show. He advocates for his crew, works hard to create the best atmosphere and culture possible and is an active mentor in the VFX community. He's a great addition to any CG Supervision team."
Vice President, VFX Ops @ Scanline VFX
"I worked with Cristian on a few projects as Producer and Head of Production. Cristian is the type of supervisor you want on your team because of his personality and his team spirit. I recall him working really well with our more junior talent while handling very complex CG problems. His attention to details and team player attitude were greatly appreciated. I would recommend Cristian and would enjoy doing another movie (or more!) With him"
Senior VFX Producer @ Scanline VFX
"I worked with Cristian at Mill Film during a particularly difficult project. During that time I found he had really great ideas to share and help with the work. He worked on some tools along with other TDs to help a few aspects on that project. He is happy to share and he even conducted master-classes with some departments. After that he handled a smaller project really well, that even completed earlier than scheduled; I haven't seen that much in my VFX experience. It was really great to have him in the team."
Head of CG @ DNEG
"Cristian is a joy to work with and constantly strives for the most efficient and effective way of working. Always happy to help out with technical problems and is one of the best problem solvers around! He has a great spirit and constantly brings a good vibe to those around him. He is extremely level-headed and is always one step ahead of the plan! Followed him from Mill Film to L’Atelier because I trust him implicitly!"
Animation Supervisor @ Rodeo FX
"Cristian was my CG Supervisor when I was at Mokko Studio and then at Digital District. He is a very competent person who has a good overall vision of all CG departments. He understands the needs of projects and he know what we needed to achieve the objectives. He is also a very good teacher, he always had answers when I asked him to explain some technical things to me. I hope to work with him again."
