Professional skills
My artistic work goes through cinematography and video art, photography and theater. I
collaborated with directors such as B. Corbucci and C. Calligari and the producers Amendola, Turi
Vasile and Fulvio Luccisano, Vittorio Storaro and Maurizio Calvesi (director of photography), in
various roles ranging from the idea of the project to the organization of the sets, to the recruitment
of technical personnel, to the drafting of considerable parts of the screenplays, thanks to the
creative flexibility I learned the cinematographic techniques that allowed me to easily continue on
the artistic training path. I founded an independent film production company, the Film Maker
Academy, with the aim of bringing together more characters with international experience, in order
27/12/15 © Unione europea, 2002-2015 | http://europass.cedefop.europa.eu Pagina 5 / 7

to break down the geographical distances that separate us from American cinema. The project has
joined various characters, including some emerging actors and workers of the New York Film
Academy. I am a founding member of the DNA STRANDS PRODUCTIONS Independent Film
Production Company based in Malta.
