Hello! I am Ram Tamez, a Mexican filmmaker specializing in 2D animation currently living in Paris. In 2020, I graduated from Gobelins with the short film LA BESTIA, which won an Annie Award. Since then, I have worked as a 2D animator on Primal by Genndy Tartakovsky, Scavengers Regin by Titmouse, and most recently, I directed the opening short film for the 2023 Annecy Festival, KIKIRIKI.
Throughout my career, I have honed techniques in 2D animation, character design, storyboard, drawing, and storytelling. Now, I want to share that knowledge with you in a program designed to help you overcome your artistic challenges and reach your goals.

What is the Ram Tamez / Animation, Drawing & Filmmaking Mentorship Program?
This is a fully personalized mentorship program designed for artists and students of all levels who wish to improve in 2D animation, character design, storyboard, drawing, or storytelling.
Each student will receive a unique experience, with a plan tailored to their current level and focused on their objectives. My individual approach ensures consistent and effective progress.
What makes this program unique is the one-on-one mentorship approach. While videos and recorded content are valuable, I firmly believe that one-on-one interaction is key to focusing on the skills you want to improve. That’s why my mentorship program will give you personalized guidance, direct feedback, and the support needed to take your skills to the next level.

Who is this program for?
This program is designed for students and artists of all levels and is perfect if:

• You want to improve your drawings to make them more dynamic and expressive.

• You wish to perfect your acting in animation, conveying genuine emotions.

• You’re looking to refine your animation method to make it more efficient and natural.

• You’re developing a short, series, or film and need help with the pitch or feedback.

• You want to learn storytelling to create impactful stories through animation.

• You need to improve in storyboard, structuring more effective visual narratives.

• You’re preparing a portfolio to apply for a school or job and need guidance.

If any of these areas resonate with you, this program is for you.

What does this program include?
This program has a fully personalized approach. At the beginning of each month, I will work with you to create a plan tailored to your needs and areas of improvement (2D, character design, storyboard, drawing, or storytelling). Each student, under my guidance, will have a unique path based on their current level and objectives.
2 one-on-one online sessions per week (1 hour each) including things like:
Detailed feedback on your work 
Portfolio review
Practical exercises tailored to your needs, goals, and skill level
Specific drawovers to help address your weaknesses
Mentorship and feedback if you are working on your short, series, film, or pitch and would like my input
These activities will be incorporated into your personalized sessions as needed, ensuring that each session focuses on what will best support your progress at that time and not all at the same time.
Plus, each month includes a special group session with a surprise guest for an animation chat.
My goal is for you to make the most of every minute of this experience to progress steadily and reach the next level in your journey.
