Adolfo Martínez Pérez

Adolfo Martinez was born from Spanish parents in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in

1966. After growing up in Spain, where he obtained his BA in Communications

and held a variety of jobs that ranged from video editing to teacher of story

structure, he returned to the US in 1991 to attend the editing program at

AFI, at which time he participated in the film HELICOPTER.

Subsequently,

Adolfo never pursued a career as an editor; he combined, instead, his film

background with his drawing skills and ventured into the field of production

illustration, currently, still his livelihood, having participated in major

studio features such as the recent Columbia Pictures release CHARLIE'S ANGELS, ALIEN RESURRECTION, for 20th Century Fox or Columbia's STUART

LITTLE II, in which he is currently involved.

Samples of his storyboard

work can be found at http://www.storyboardsinc.com/martinezadolfo.htm (a long way from the

sketches he also did for HELICOPTER in addition to cutting the film, at

display in this site!)

Nowadays, Adolfo alternates his activity as an

illustrator with his passion for writing, having found his Spanish language

short stories awarded and published in Spain several times (Gabriel Aresty

award for EL BESO SALADA in 2000, Camilo José Cela award for SNACK in

1998.)
