Marcos has proven to be a person who acquires new and complex knowledge very easily and quickly, to the point of being able to manage a webcast without any problem. In addition, his facet as a video editor has helped us many times.

Working with Marcos de Castro is being a great professional pleasure because he is solving with ease, efficiency and kindness how many hits and obstacles appear along the way. For our nascent project it was very important to have a creative and attractive website: Marcos has successfully achieved this.
”
I think Marcos is a great artist. He has the ability to capture in images the ideas that anyone has about a specific project, regardless of the format and always respecting the delivery deadlines. I have counted on his help for years and I hope it will continue like this for many more years.

Marcos has the necessary skills to successfully carry out what was asked of him. His help was essential for the correct elaboration of a series of promotional videos for CNIO & The City.

We needed some corporate videos to promote some products and I contacted Marcos. My choice could not have been more accurate. Speed, professionalism and quality were what we demanded and Marcos proved to be up to the task. A contact worth keeping for future occasions.

During his stay in London Marcos demonstrated remarkable ability in both technical and personal resources. He knew how to adapt perfectly to the required workflow and he got on with his colleagues without any problem. I look forward to working with him again.

Marcos helped me a lot to promote my work. I needed a video that would capture the essence of my light boxes. He showed great sensitivity to the image and made an exquisite piece. I only have good words about my experience with him.

Marcos has been one of the best colleagues with whom I have been fortunate to work. When we selected him to be part of our audiovisual department at ReasonWhy, he not only immediately grasped the essence and modus operandi of the office, but also developed a loyalty and responsibility for the company worth admiring. He is an honest, understanding and easy-going worker. His knowledge of audiovisual, design and programming had a very important positive impact on the department. Hopefully I can meet Marcos again in the workplace.
