Theater show – La Volata di Calò
This archived content does not reflect my current skills
Background animation for the theater show “La Volata di Calò”, for Teatro Stabile di Catania. It’s the adaptation of a novel by G. Savatteri about the life and the dreams of the man who founded the Montante bike factory.
The prologue is set in a legendary market of the shadows imagined by the protagonist when he was still a child, so director Fabio Grossi asked me to aid the narration with my animations.
Missione Paura
Four books illustrated by my friend Federico Gaggero and me, for Timbuktu Labs (now Rebel Girls) and published in Italy by DeAgostini Kids.
There’s also an app that adds sounds and animations!

Mural for a new kindergarten in Taormina, Sicily.
The idea of an orchestra of tigers had been floating in my mind for a while, and this kindergarten was the perfect opportunity to paint it out.
It’s my largest wall so far, roughly 40×4 meters (about 130×13 ft).
The seventeen instruments, left to right: accordion, saxophone, Italian bagpipe, sousaphone, harmonica, drum, trumpet, cymbals, triangle, guitar, piano, tracker, double bass, violin, flute, harp, didgeridoo.

▶ My video of falling rocks goes viral
Mt. Etna decided to spit tons of volcanic rocks and ashes onto my town. I was there filming the event, and eventually this video went viral. It was reposted on Liveleak, IO9, reddit and several other websites.
Too bad it’s filmed with a toy camera!

This is the Making Of video for Oranguerrilla, my student film for the Academy of Art University, San Francisco. I really wanted to make this backstage video as it brings together the countless steps I went through to make my film.
Roughly, I spent 1600 hours of work on the project from concept art to the final edit, spread over two and a half years.
