Description
In this episode, I chat with Chilean Motion Graphic Designer and Illustrator Cristobal Saez. Cristo was raised in Chile and eventually made his way to New York City to attend FIT where he studied graphic design. He quickly realized that branding and logo work just wasn't for him and started creating illustrated GIFs of pop culture moments on his off time. But it was through his work creating this digital fan art that he was able to land a role at a record label creating content and now works at Universal producing visual content for artists such as Beyonce, Adele, and Lil Nas X.Keep on listening to hear us talk about why he chose to move to the US, his experience creating viral fan art, and his advice for breaking into the music industry today.EPISODE LINKS- Watch this Episode on YouTube- Join the Patreon- Host: Follow Fabiola on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok- Guest: Follow Cristo on Instagram and TikTok

03: Gay Chicanx Collage Artist, Ruby Marquez | @Broobs: Welcome to this week’s episode of Draws in Spanish where I chat with queer Chicanx collage artist, Ruby Marquez aka @Broobs on Instagram. Ruby and I get existential about what it “means to be Latinx,” the risks associated with making Selena fan art, using art as a coping strategy, and how Ruby processes the pressure to be perfect on social media. Ruby also divulges how they go about collecting source material for their collection, moving into music production, and why connecting with your culture is so much more than tracing your bloodline. Join me on this week’s episode to learn more about Ruby’s complex story as a queer Mexican-American artist. by Draws in Spanish | Conversations with Latinx Visual Artists and Designers
