For Beauclair and Barros, launching a new studio in Santa Fe was an opportunity to be in an incredibly creative environment. “Because Santa Fe has such a long history as a center for artists and musicians, we looked around the country and decided to launch a new studio here,” notes Beauclair. “There is a great deal of inspiration, as well as a stronger connection to nature, and a series of film and production incentives by the state, to get clients to shoot and post here. All of these reasons combined motivated us to make the move west.”

With the multicultural studio’s roots still in Miami, for Barros, he points out that in this digital age, designers can work anywhere. “We definitely have seen a trend over the past few years of studios like ours getting out of New York and L.A. to embrace smaller, creative communities across the country. We had always done that being originally based in Miami, we collaborated with international clients around the world, all connected digitally. Now, we can work from Miami and Santa Fe, or anywhere frankly. And remain centered in a community that is dedicated to artists and the artistic process.”

For Little Big Bang’s Beauclair and Barros, their combined global experiences shape how they see the world. Their unique vision, coupled with a collaborative approach and unwavering commitment to excellence, affords them the privilege of working with highly talented and respected professionals across all industries. Having garnered numerous industry awards from PromaxBDA, the Addys and the Tellys, Little Big Bang offers branding solutions for the film and television industry, advertising agencies and small businesses. A list of services includes: design and animation, show and network branding, large-format displays and digital signage, title sequences and credits, corporate presentations and events, commercial production, and art direction.

Just this year, Little Big Bang has recently completed a series of forward-thinking, new projects including: “La Banda” (from Syco, the same creator of “American Idol” from Simon Cowell) and FremantleMedia, which airs on Univision. Little Big Bang branded and created a graphics package for the taped and live shows and created some of the stage graphics for print. Also for FremantleMedia, they branded and created an entire graphics package for “Dale Replay.” Little Big Bang is currently working on “Future Fantasy Delight,” a series of five-minute trailers, produced by Meow Wolf (www,meowwolf.com). This innovative project is in collaboration with Creator-Artist Nico Salazar. The Little Big Bang team is providing traditional animation techniques, as well as 3D animation for this unique series.
