TESTIMONIALS
Working with Gustavo Maia is a peace of mind: not only is he one of the best video editors and motion graphics artists of our market, not only is he creative and always shares valid inputs, as he is the most reliable – Gustavo never (and I’ll repeat this another three times), never never, never lets us down: work shows up in time, and on top of that, overwhelmingly well done.
Three things I would like to say about Gustavo:
1) He’s an incredibly skilful editor and motion designer;
2) He’s very collaborative, professional and approachable;
3) He didn’t pay me to write this.
Gustavo is one of those rare talents that combines the right skills with the right attitude. All-in-one 3D motion designer, good taste, tremendous knowledge in the field, always making the final product look better and better. On top of all that, he has an unmatched professionalism, never lets you down, joins all projects with a lot of heart and intelligence.
Gustavo, a skilled, reliable, resourceful and experienced professional is defined by an “Ok, let’s make this work” instead of “This can’t be done”, attitude. This makes him the go-to person when you have a challenging project that absolutely cannot fail.

ABOUT
GUSTAVO MAIA
MOTION DESIGNER | 3D ARTIST | VIDEO EDITOR
I’m a freelance motion designer from Portugal. I mostly work with motion graphics, but also do 3D modeling and animation, video editing, some sound mixing and more.
My work is usually focused on advertising for broadcast and web, but I also create explainer videos for products or services, corporate videos for internal comunication, video-mapping, product 3D modeling and rendering.
Apart from that, I’m a certified instructor, lecturing in FLAG one of the major instruction centers in Portugal.
I’ve been freelancing since 2005 and now work close with some of the major adverising agencies in Portugal such as Publicis, Leo Burnett, Fuel, BBDO and more, working for brands like Coca-Cola, BMW, Jameson, Universal Music, Galp, Santa Casa da Misericórdia, Banco Atlantico, Fortaleza and many others.
My personal project is MY MOTION GRAPHICS, a site and youtube channel that host tutorials and some addons that I create like MOTION DROP, THE ILLUMINATI or MY STUDIO.
My tools of choice are Cinema 4D, After Effects, Illustrator, Premiere, Photoshop, ZBrush, 3D Coat, Ableton Live.
Feel free to get in touch if you think you might need my services. Hope to hear from you soon.
