Your World from a Different Perspective.
MICHAEL "MIKER" RIVERO
I'm Michael "Miker" Rivero, an acclaimed artist in Metro Manila, Philippines. With over 15 years of experience in visual arts and animation, I specialize in providing exceptional creative art services. My portfolio showcases a wide range of art assets and compelling content for marketing, advertising, social media, video production, animation, comic books, comic strips, children's books, web/app UX, metaverse, simulations, and video games. I have handled & led many creative teams with different expertise, from the usual creatives up to the development team, with whom some of my portfolios are co-produced with them.
I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts college degree majoring in Advertising from Far Eastern University, a testament to my dedication and expertise in the field. In addition to my freelance art services, I offer consultancy services as a Producer, Senior Manager, or Project Director in the exciting domains of Game Development, Art Production, and Digital Innovation. I'm privileged to share my industry knowledge and experience as a De La Salle University lecturer, teaching subjects such as 3D art, animation, game business, and environment design.
I invite you to discover the transformative power of my artistic vision and innovative approach. Let's explore the endless possibilities together and unlock the full potential of your creative projects. Contact me today, and let's embark on a remarkable journey of artistic collaboration.
