Testimonials
When the workload felt overwhelming, and the team was small, Fabio would always say with calm confidence: 'Don't worry, we got it.’ And, without fail, he always delivered. As a Director, Fabio was not only highly reliable, which, as a Producer, made him an absolute joy to work with, but also a great leader and an incredible person. His team's work didn't just meet expectations; it elevated our combat and brought our worlds to life in the most epic ways.
Fabio is an FX warrior who constantly creates amazing art and FX pieces. I had the pleasure to work with Fabio on the same project, and I was surprised by his skills, his keen eye, and his techniques when it comes to FX and 3D sculpting.
Fabio has consistently produced high-quality visual effects within ever-tightening technical constraints. One of the key visual pillars of RYSE is to deliver a visually cinematic experience, and Fabio has been very much instrumental in helping us achieve that. A talented artist professionally and in his spare time, I’ve really enjoyed working with Fabio on RYSE.
Fabio is passionate, talented, hard-working, and skilled. It was a joy seeing him pour all his energy into RYSE as his contribution as an FX designer, and hence, the look of the game was very substantial. One of the coolest things he did in the game was the "superstorm" in the York level, which came in hot and at a late stage in production. The final look of the effect speaks for itself. If you haven't seen it, it's stunning.
