Francesco Martinuzzi portrait
About

I'm a London-based director and cinematographer, originally from Genova, Italy. For the past eight years I've been making commercial, documentary and narrative work for brands and artists including UEFA, Red Bull, Boss, Universal Music UK, Campari, Monkey Shoulder, Sports Direct and Gondwana Records.

My work has taken me across Europe, North America, Asia and Africa, from a recent documentary series discovering grassroots music communities in India, Nigeria and Taiwan, to directing an oneiric and delicate documentary on coastal preservation in Italy. I'm drawn to stories that are closely tied to people's culture, identity and land, and that need to be approached with a sensitive and understanding eye.

My personal work focuses on experimentation, exploring themes such as memory, personal introspection and philosophy. I bring that same sensibility to brands, creating pieces that feel authentic and cinematic, and that stand apart from what's typical in their field.

I'm currently looking to take on more documentary and international projects.
