Miguel Torija
I love movies, I love VFX.
I'm a VFX Compositor... and more.
After finishing my bachelor's degree, I started studying VFX, focusing on Nuke and, most importantly, learning how to be a good compositor.
Now, with more than seven years of experience, I've had the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects, from movies and TV series to animated shows.
As an artist, I push myself every day to keep learning. I didn't stop with Nuke; I've also explored Houdini, Python, BlinkScript, Computer engineering... everything I can!
VES Member!
I've become a Visual Effects Society member and am really happy to be part of it. I'm doing my best to contribute as much as I can!
I was born in Madrid, Spain, in 1993. I grew up with big blockbusters such as Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and The Lord of the Rings. I love how films can take people across the universe and make them experience all kinds of emotions. Now, I'm proud to help create those experiences myself!.

A bit more about me!
Okay, okay, a bit more about me!
I love board games (Terraforming Mars, Zombicide, and Gloomhaven are my favorites!), trading card games like Magic: The Gathering and Star Wars: Unlimited, video games, and all kinds of music, depending on the day!
I also love to tell stories. During my degree, I joined several scripting and creative writing courses. I used to write short stories with a couple of friends, but sadly, I don't have much time for that now...
As I mentioned before, I love going to the theatre. Sure, it's cozy to watch TV series and movies at home—I try to catch something every week! But there's just something special about the cinema experience. I always hunt for the best theatre around and go to the movies whenever I can!
