BIOGRAPHY:
After several years of freelance, in 2008 I founded ROOF VideoDesign, a creative video design studio focused on videodesign development thru content creation for live enviroments.

The studio now counts 10 creatives from illustrators to 3d modellers, taking care of every aspect of the videodesign development. We project, create and execute every form of video environment from large scale projection, mapping, dome, to specific led setups, always with a friendly, open, extremely eclectic and enthusiastic approach.
On the Roof:

We design hi-quality video content for live music, theater, tv, musicals, catwalks and corporate events, where a strong identity is necessary. We follow our clients from the concept, through the development process, to the final display with highly professional competence and an unique creative approach. We design the video environments for shows from the scratch, or creativitly translating existing ideas into moving images. We’re operating internationally, in close relationship with stage designers, light designers and video media management professionals. We work perfectly connected to every video output system and mediaserver able to project and manage any kind of video setup. WE also provide live video content management through a professional and modern VJ approach. We love VR.
