Esteban VALDEZ
Director / Storyboard & Character Artist

This is a collection of my most recent work. With about 9 years of experience in entertainment and new media fields, my journey has taken me through all phases of production from conceptual to directorial. Being able to communicate both verbally and visually are the keys to successful leadership in any business venture.

Currently residing in Canada for the duration of Three Delivery (www.threedelivery.com) which airs in mid-late 2008.

I'm also working on several short films which will be entering festival venues for 2008-2009.
