Hugo Calderon, better known in the industry as Hugo Neural, is a pioneer in creating short films focused on surgery. He is internationally recognized as the leading audiovisual director in the medical field, having collaborated with top surgeons, renowned congresses, and cutting-edge medical technologies.

Hugo is credited with implementing a cinematic approach to plastic surgery during a time when the field was highly conservative, with only photographic documentation being displayed. He broke this mold and established his unique style, which has since become an integral part of the visual identity of surgeons worldwide.

In addition to his work as an audiovisual director, Hugo designs soundscapes and special effects using instruments and synthesizers, adding a magical touch to his productions.

Today, he is the founder of The Neural Academy, where he is regularly invited as a speaker to prestigious congresses and various plastic surgery societies around the world, delivering masterclasses tailored for surgeons. He also conducts customized hands-on workshops for clinics and their internal teams.
