One of the most exciting projects I’ve ever worked on was as Co-Director, Videographer, and Editor for the educational TV series "Explorers Below 0", which documented Ecuadorian scientists' research in Antarctica. I spent three months at the 'Pedro Vicente Maldonado' Ecuadorian Military Base, where I worked in extreme conditions, handling heavy equipment, filming scientists, backing up footage, and editing the content. Back in Ecuador, I led the production and editing of seven episodes, covering topics such as DNA, mapping, moss, wildlife, and the region's flora and fauna.
