Im a Spain based Cinematographer and Visual Storyteller. Over the past years I have had the honor to work with clients such as HBO, Sony Pictures, BBC, Deutsche TV, The Washington Post, Tech Crunch, Stateless Media, Upworthy, Coca-Cola, NIVEA, Colgate, CineMAX, RedFuse bringing real stories to film. There is an incredible amount of content out there this days. Amazing real stories matched with poorly and unmotivated Imagery, There is also a fair amount of very beautiful pieces that are just completely lacking any content. As a Visual Storyteller I am looking for that sweet-spot of marrying excellent storytelling with high end cinematic visuals that let the viewer dive deeper into the story and connect in a way that wouldn't otherwise be possible. I personally believe this makes stories stand out. I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy doing it and please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions, want to collaborate or hire me for a project. All the Best! Emiliano

I am an independent photographer and documentarist, i have a great passion for independent journalism and telling stories, the stories of my people are now the most important part of my life. The stories that i usually work on are about communities in resistance by environmental problems, such as multinational corporations taking over peasant´s land, pollution of air and water, social movements and all those stories mass media usually wont tell. I also like finding sotries about anonymous heroes, regular people who are able to make great changes in their communities. It is my passion, and i hope i can share it with your community.
