Sumario:[EN] César Díaz Meléndez (Madrid, 1975) is one of the most multidisciplinary Spanish animators españoles — and one of the best valued interna-cionally. Working since 1994, and after having contributed to dozens of animated productions for TV and cinema — including Las tres mellizas(Robert Balser, Baltasar Roca, 1995) and El Cid: The Legend ( José Pozo, 2003) —, he started to al-ternate his personal filmography —like Docu-mentales animados (2002), No corras tanto (2008) or the most recent and well-known Zepo (2014), animated exquisitely with sand — with his comis-sioned work in stop-motion films, like the Goya Award winner short film El viaje de Said (Coke Rioboo, 2007), the feature film O Apóstolo (Fernando Cortizo, 2012) and a myriad of international productions such as Frankenweenie (Tim Burton, 2012), ParaNorman (Chris Butler, Sam Fell, 2012), Anomalisa (Duke Johnson, Charlie Kaufmann, 2015) or My Life as a Zucchini (Claude Barras, 2016). Nowadays he lives and works in London, shooting the new ans mysterious animated feature by Wes Anderson: Island of Dogs, whose premiere is scheduled for 2018.
