Joao Sita

Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, João’s experience covers everything from award-winning feature films to binge-worthy TV, making him a perfect fit for Framestore’s varied client base and diverse range of visually-distinct projects.

João began his career in advertising and made a jump to big-screen projects in 2006 with Zack Snyder’s 300. Eternally curious, he is self taught in many of the software platforms he masters. João has lent his expertise on blockbusters including Jurassic World (which earned him a VES nomination), James Cameron’s Avatar and Assassin’s Creed. His work for Netflix series Lost in Space saw him honored with a Primetime Emmy nomination and win the VES award for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Photoreal Episode. Most recently, João helmed sci-fi thriller Project Power for Netflix, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead and recently delivered Lost in Space, S3 and Francis Lawrence’s fantasy film Slumberland.

Outside of the office, his quest for inspiration continues - in his spare time he is a keen podcast-listener and enjoys visiting museums and exploring the city.
