Director
My heart and roots are in Sardinia, but I've always had a natural and strong need for travelling and discovering.
My first contact with the audiovisual environment has been in London, thanks to an internship at MTV, News Europe Department.
Then, I was in Bologna working for the Jack Blutharsky comunication agency.
In the meanwhile, MTV Italia wanted me in Milan, where I spent 5 intensive and wonderful years and where I've decided to start my freelancer job as director and filmmaker.
So, my path brought me to shoot a few documentaries about nature and travel for the SKY channel “Yacht and Sail”.
Then, for a long period, I've worked with Sony Music Italy for the video department, following Italian and international artists – The Script, Hurts, Zaz are just some of them.
In India I directed a documentary for the Italian group Mediaset and illycaffè brought me to Colombia among coffee growers to tell their stories.
In the meanwhile, I've been shooting and directing videos, short movies and tv shows for Mediaset, La5, Real Time, Fox, Deejay TV, Alfa Romeo, Zodiak Active, Freemantle, elena Mirò, Fiorella Rubino, Action Aid and many others.
In 2012, in New York, I directed “Rose White Brown”, an art circuit short film.
Recently I've written and directed “Little big heroes”, a short movie about susteinability for the Sardinian Film Commission and Sardinian Region.
I've just finished my last short movie, "Due come noi" with Amanda Sandrelli.
I am also in pre-production with two documentaries, "invisible genius" and "game (over)?"
My professional skills are about directing and writing. My passion are images and stories. And their interconnection, that gives always access to new worlds to be discovered.
