His uncanny knack for transforming familiar objects through stop-motion animation has earned him global recognition and dozens of honors, including an Academy Award® nomination for Fresh Guacamole in 2013. (It is the shortest film ever nominated for an Oscar.)
PES has also directed over 75 commercials for major brands including Corona, Honda, Bacardi, Playstation, Samsung, Orange Telecom, and more.
"PES puts a new spin on the familiar in a way that we haven't seen since Warhol worked in soup cans." -- David Levy, Directing Animation (Allworth Press).
"Clicking on a PES film is to open a safe and suddenly see a million ideas glittering and exploding. The only reason you close the door is to re-open it just after and discover what will pop this time." -- Michel Gondry, Paste MagazineБейне
