Hi, I’m David Betancourt. My experience involves producing content and leading teams for the production of branded content, entertainment, scientific content and film. working with advertising agencies, animation studios and production companies.
lastest prjects:
GOOGLE GENOMMICS
This project was very interesting because the challenge was to use motion design to translate complex scientific processes from Google Research’s DeepOlishers project. The goal was to improve the recovery of endangered species through a new AI model that analyzes genomes of different species to determine optimal pairings, helping increase successful mating and boost population growth.

MOTION & 2D ANIMATION ON VIDEO / ADS & BRANDED CONTENT REEL
This was my first project entirely generated by AI—from the script, shooting, character design, location, and video production, everything, including editing and motion graphics in After Effects, with AI voice-over—produced for MeWe. Role: I did everything :)
MY CREATIVE PROCESS
01.DISCOVERY:
A good start is the key to every project. I make sure to do careful research before starting each one. My process is based on insights, using research as the foundation for every project.
02.EXPLORATION
In this phase, I establish the purpose of the project, why it needs to exist. This is how I define its conceptual framework. Then I experiment based on its visual identity and the different ways it could be used to communicate effectively.
03.EXECUTION
The approved proposal is produced. Its development is carefully refined and tested together with the client or creative team to ensure that the deliverables are provided in their correct form and format.
