Hey there! I am Ram Tamez, a Mexican 2d animation filmmaker living in Paris. I have a tremendous love for storytelling and cinema, but I also understand the care and planning that animation requires to exist.
I come from a drawing/painting and music oriented background, those disciplines have given me a good understanding about the fundamentals of Art, composition, contrast, design or timing. Concepts that we can find in the craft of filmmaking.
From 2011 to 2018 I worked through several production houses in México for studios like Disney TV, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. Working in 2d Animation, Storyboard, Character Design, Layout, and concept Art. During that time I also had the chance to direct and supervise animation crews.
In 2020 and thanks to a scholarship I received from Guillermo del Toro, I graduated from the Master of Arts in Character Animation and Filmmaking at Gobelins, l'école de l'image. Where I got the chance to make a film called LA BESTIA that won the Best Student Film at the ANNIE AWARDS ceremony in 2021.
Currently I am working at Studio La Cachette as 2d Animator for Genndy Tartakovsky's PRIMAL. And on the side, developing my next personal project.
