And here we are
Once upon a time, there was a group of 2D animation enthusiasts who dreamed of creating their own studio. United by their love for art and storytelling, they decided to join forces and breathe life into what would become Piragna Animation. Inspired by the beauty and magic of classic films, they set out to revive the charm of traditional animation in a world flooded with realities."
Valet Siv Manrique
Hi, umm, I'm Valet, and I handle the production of many things. Did you know that production was born in the 1920s of the 20th century? Although I also draw, do animation, play the guitar, cook pasta, eggs with rice, and many things you wouldn't expect. I can sew socks with a light bulb, and they turn out really well, but the last time I did it was when I was 11, and my grandmother taught me. In short
Adaan Li Guampé
Hi there, Earthlings. They call me Li, also known as 'Dulce de Rata' (Rat Candy). I enjoy doing many things, from making dolls, witch's drawers, macabre paintings, video games, animated TV series, dishes of spaghetti with different flavors, thinking about great movies, and maybe winning an Olympic medal (I don't think it will happen) and resurrecting abandoned projects. And whenever you like, you can visit me at Piragna, where they've made me the director. Hugs that squeeze your heart and take out your soul."
Carlos Andrés Correa (Charlie)
Noisesssss!!! Yeah, I love sounds, doing voices, making music, doing Foley, anything related to sound, that's where I come in. I also like spicy snacks and anime.

Hi there! I'm Sofia, a passionate animator and illustrator. Currently, I'm the Director of Animation at Piragna, where I've been focusing on honing my directing skills and improving what I've already learned about animation. I have the super dream of directing my own animated projects, always prioritizing the female role in them, and reaching many people with magical and touching stories.

(Gabs)
Hi! I'm Gaby, I'm a non-binary person, I'm passionate about storytelling and, above all, about facilitating and helping others find the path to make their stories come true. I'm part of the production team at Piragna, and most days you'll find me adding color to an Excel spreadsheet and sending three messages at the same time. I have a postgraduate degree in animation, but I love any form of storytelling, including but not limited to books, comics, movies, musicals, video games, podcasts, and more. Whatever you need, I'm always here to help.
Tatiana Barragán Zorro
Hi! I'm Tatiana Barragán Zorro, or simply “The crazy stocking lady.” I'm obsessed with watermelons and, of course, stockings. I'm an audiovisual producer with a soul that defines itself as “realistic” (although it borders dangerously on pessimism). My job? Managing animation projects (series, movies...). The great irony is that I hate organizing my real life. Besides that, I'm a fan of music, podcasts, and, lately, K-pop and K-dramas. Looking for recommendations? Write to me!

You'll see me running around making sure projects get done.
Laura Moreno Gil (Ress)
Hi, I'm Laura, but everyone calls me Ress. I'm pretty laid-back, except when it comes to competitions, because I love to win 😀
I'm really good at listening to people, but not so good at
talking, haha, and I think that's why I took refuge in anime and
TV series when I was little, and that's where my love for animation and digital art came from n.n
P.S.: If I could, I would be a cloud ☁️☁️
