3D Projected Animated Video
These illustrations were animated and transformed into 3D wall projections, creating an immersive experience for guests. One projection depicted an altar, while the other brought a vibrant market scene to life.
Menu Design
For the dinner, I was asked to create a custom menu inspired by Lotería, the traditional card game similar to bingo. Each dish highlights its key ingredients and is thoughtfully paired with a non-alcoholic beverage.
