Reviews
Futura is a creative studio based in Mexico City. Founded in 2008, its mission is to transform traditional forms of design and rethink the way it's used in Mexico.
Their work is the result of constant experimentation; they believe in creativity above all else and how it can be translated not only into images, but also into objects and spaces. The essence of Futura is the fusion of perfection with chaos.
They have extensive experience in branding and have collaborated on a range of projects for restaurants, bars, food brands, and even fashion, in places like Los Angeles, Paris, Kuwait, Spain, Tokyo, and more.

Me gusto el curso aunque creo que me faltó algo más de información respecto al como estructurar un portafolio. Se enfoca bastante en lo que es la post production fotográfica lo cual me pareció super util.
