About Thales Menezes

I am Thales Menezes, videographer and founder of Tucano Media, a creative agency based in California. My journey into high-end production didn't start with a lens, but with sound.

I am the son of Adonias Jr., a Latin Grammy-winning engineer and the founder of Estúdio Arsis—a legendary reference in Brazil for acoustic perfection and piano recording. Growing up in a world-class studio environment taught me early on that true quality is about transparency and precision.

My professional career began at age 18 in the Brazilian music market, where I worked alongside top-tier artists and instrumentalists. This immersion in an industry that demands absolute sonic perfection opened doors to major corporate projects, honing my ability to execute complex creative visions under pressure.

Today, I bring that multidisciplinary heritage to the US market. I see video with the discipline of an audio engineer: I understand that a premium aesthetic must be supported by a flawless technical rhythm.

At Tucano Media, I act as the strategic production arm for leaders who need their content to resonate with authority. Whether I am on the mats training Jiu-Jitsu or directing a shoot, my philosophy remains the same: technique, consistency, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
