José D.
Porteles

Sports media, live events and campaign production for national assignments.

I work where access, timing and delivery matter. I create the stills, motion and campaign-ready content that carry an assignment from the moment it happens to the audience it reaches.

01

The position

One practice. Three ways to deliver the story.

I am not limited to a single frame or a single venue. My work moves between professional sport, live entertainment and media production. Each assignment demands speed, visual judgment and a clear understanding of where the work will live next.

That range matters: the coverage holds up editorially, while the production is shaped for campaigns, social channels and live audiences.

02

Selected professional work

A record built across media, sport and live production.

The selection begins with producer-led media, recurring league coverage and live-event assignments. Every archive brings together the visual work with a clear description of my role, the working environment and the kind of delivery the assignment required.
