Advertising · 1990s – 2002
Advertising taught me to earn attention.
Before the films, I worked at Kráneo and then as creative director at Staff D’Arcy. In 2002, Adlatina recorded a winning idea and a placement at Agulla & Baccetti.
Alan Nadal · Director · Producer · Actor · AI cinema systems
How the work became a system.
I began in advertising, moved into film, stepped in front of the camera and built the companies, worlds and AI workflows behind the work.
The story
A career in six chapters.
A parallel track · Acting · 1995 – present
I stepped in front of the camera.
I have fifteen screen credits, from El culpable to The Lost City, Ladrones and Sharktopus vs. Pteracuda. I experienced the director’s questions from the other side of the camera.

Multimedio de bebidas
El Enófilo, Saber & Beber and La Cata Radial join in a connected media proposition around wine culture.
By Yoany Cruz · Editorial rendering from the public recordMedia · 2006 – 2008
El Enófilo became a media platform.
El Enófilo connected publishing, television, radio, weekly audience research and live wine culture. The 2006 press record catches the moment media became an ecosystem.
Film · 2013 – present
Thirty seconds became ninety minutes.
Noche de Circo opened the feature-film chapter in 2013. Direction, writing, production and La Casita became the structure that gets work to the screen.
Original worlds · Present
Isla Curiosa grows across media.
Isla Curiosa brings an original Caribbean children’s universe to story, animation, nature and play.
AI cinema systems · 2025 – present
The studio became a laboratory.
Cine con IA connects filmmaking, generative video, character pipelines, product systems and research. The work now includes ClueQuest, Isla Curiosa/Fuzzy, Seedance and Kling tests, Vlockster, MaluDB and a teachable method for directing human and synthetic production.
The next world · Now
Bring me the thing that does not fit in one box.
Brands, films and original IP begin the same way: a world worth entering, and the conditions to make it real.
The screen record
Every film opens into its record.
