About Simone

I was born in Messina, Sicily, Italy, but I was raised in the province of Turin, Piedmont, Italy. I spent most of my childhood in the small village of Arignano, surrounded by nature which became my source of inspiration for most short film projects I made from the age of just 10.

My passion has always been telling stories through motion pictures. I experimented through the viewfinder of my father's old VHS camera. My siblings were the actors, and my house and backyard were the settings. I specialised in film studies at the Albe Steiner high school of Turin, being awarded an audiovisual communication diploma in 2014.

Shortly after, I moved to Dublin, Ireland where I carried on my studies in film and television production at the National Film School. Being granted access to the school's facilities and lectures was a dream that became true. During the years, I had the chance of being trained not just from a theoretical and practical point of view of film and TV production, but also from a personal one. I graduated in 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts degree (Hons) in Film & Television Production, majoring in Fiction Directing, with a First Class Honours result.

Over the years, I have been working with clients and producing high-quality work as a freelancer as well as having written, produced, shot, edited and directed several short films, content for TV and social media, documentaries, and music videos, including the award-winning short film "Follow" (2018), screened in numerous national and international film festivals.
