WHAT’S A TINTO?

In Colombia, a tinto is a cup of smooth black coffee. It’s the first thing you’re offered when you visit someone: a warm invitation to sit down, have a chat and stay a bit longer.

Studio Tinto is the trading name of award-winning animator Alex Amelines, me. I will work with you to find the best way to bring your project to life, from concept to finished film. ☕️

For over 20 years I’ve been crafting educational films, awareness content for charities, and large-screen animation for museums and exhibitions. I also create corporate work for some of the world’s leading financial and professional services brands.

I’m also the human behind Amazing Things Happen, my neurodiversity project, which is well worth a look.

When I’m not animating for clients I like to tinker in my workshop. You can see (and buy 💰) my works right here.

Concept & Ideas

Working with you, I can help turn your initial idea into something that works on screen.
Script & Storyboarding

I will shape your key message into a clear visual narrative, script and storyboard.
Design & Creative Direction

Styleframes, character sheets and visual development to establish the overall look and feel of your project.
Character Animation & Storytelling

Story-led animation with expressive characters. From educational films to narrative content and explainers with personality.
Motion Design & Templates

Polished animation for brands, campaigns, events and social media. I also create MOGRTs and reusable motion systems for internal teams.
Editing, Compositing & Finishing

Bringing live action, animation, graphics and audio together into a finished piece.
