I enjoy creating Instagram filters that combine humor and political commentary. One of my most successful projects is Dancing Canelo, a filter that features a character I designed inspired by Diaz Canel, the Cuban dictator. Canelo is a cute pig who wears flashy clothes and dances to catchy music. To create the character, I started with a pig 3D model that I customized and textured in Blender. I then rigged the model using Mixamo and transform it in a AR filter with Spark AR.
