ABOUT
Hello there, I’m Alex, a filmmaker, character actor and SFX artist from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I have worked in theater, movies, documentaries, series and related events. One of the things I enjoy the most is playing fictional characters, turning them into reality from their costumes, props and makeup.
Welcome to my site, i hope you enjoy my work!
