About me

I’m Rodrigo Dal Medico Utzig, an AI video editor and performance creative with 8+ years in video production and a Bachelor’s in Digital Communication from Unisinos. I started in podcasts, editing and motion graphics; today I generate and edit video with AI and help train AI models to understand video and images.

I help clients express ideas they couldn’t put into words, and I use data to measure what the content actually delivers, so the work pays off creatively and financially.
