The film industry dismisses at 69 years of age one of the reference names in the creation of special effects: Juan Ramón Molina. Throughout fifty years as a professional, he knew how to realize the ideas embodied in the script of productions both in cinema, as in television and advertising.

At the head of Molina Special Effects, Juan Ramón Molina led a human and professional team that has worked in more than four hundred productions.

In 1997, he won the Goya Award for best special effects by Airbag , from Juanma Bajo Ulloa; in 2002 for the film 800 bullets , by Álex de la Iglesia; and in 2014, under the same direction, by Las Brujas de Zugarramurdi.

In addition to achieving these Goyas, Molina was nominated on up to 18 occasions for his effects in works such as Don Juan my dear ghost, The Letters of Alou, The Invisible Child, The Hour of the Brave, Marian Year, Perfect Crime, Romasanta the Hunt for The Beast, Therapy, The Keys of Independence, Savior, May Blood, My Great Night or Losing the East.

The company continues today by the hand of his son, Juan Ramón Molina.
