Nacho himself comes with unbounded energy and enthusiasm, a unique approach to creating strong industry bonds, and is a familiar face among the digital cinema, broadcast and post production communities across Latin America and beyond. As Colorfront grows, NMF’s knowledge and technical expertise of today's dynamic digital production, broadcast and post-production environments will be of immense value to Colorfront users and customers.”
