Documentary director, drone pilot, underwater cameraman and wildlife videographer based in Tromsø, Northern Norway. I have devoted the past 10 years to the study of nature and film. I began my career as a wildlife photographer, publishing photojournalism in international magazines and being shortlisted in international photography competitions (Nikon, National Geographic, Photo Montier, Nature Namur). When I moved to Tromsø (Northern Norway), I started to specialise as filmmaker and documentary director. My first two short documentaries have been awarded in several international film festivals and presented on national Italian TV - RAI. In 2020, I was selected for ESoDoc programme 2020 with my full-length documentary “Arctic Blue” based in the Norwegian Arctic. In 2021, I received the Talent Stipend from SpareBank Nothern Norway to improve my skills as underwater cameraman with one of the most important underwater cameraman in the world. Nowadays, I work as documentary director, freelance videographer and drone pilot in Northern Norway with national and international productions.
