SEPHIROT - The Game© is a performative role-playing game, used to play hypertext stories in which the participants can drastically change the structure each time. Any story can be transformed in a hyperdramaturgy, and we started from the simpliest stories, fairytales and folklore tales. The Director of SEPHIROT is a mix between a music director, a technician and a referee.

#DASVIDANIYA is a show that starts from a terrible news story of 2016, when Denis and Katya, two young lovers of 15 years, barricaded themselves at home for three days, and began their fight against the world through a live streaming social network. Losing the link with reality, where being good or bad doesn't matter and the only thing that's important is playing, offers them the opportunity to know each other, to support each other, to dare.

Eliogabalo - L'Anarchico Incoronato is a show that participated in the competition organized by the 47th Biennale College Theater for directors under30, reaching semi-finals. It deals with the story of the Roman emperor Heliogabalus and the women of his family, who came from Syria to Rome to rule at all costs. The sexual and ethical excesses of the young man, however, end up blowing everything up. It is the first performance developed using the Sephirot method.

In 2017 I worked in Teresa Pasquini's project, Le mie Amiche Ana e Mia, as Assistant Director and Lights. The show focused on the story of three girls affected by eating disorder grappling with their healthy and sick desires, and the fear of facing them.

Process

This graph shows my typical work process in Visual, how I usually approach and what is my workflow.

1

Step 1

Understanding the context of a performance is fundamental to develop its visual impact. Identifying the range of expenditure allows you to evaluate which hardware you can rely on.

2

Step 2

A careful study of the themes or materials from which the performance starts allows you to have a unitary focus with the director, the set designer or the technicians.

3

Step 3

The style layer of digital images will have to be defined: they will be virtual or real images that will interact with the performance.

4

Step 4

The construction phase of the images takes place through processing with video editing programs such as Adobe After Effects, Premiere, Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator.

5

Step 5

Through Troika Ranch's ISADORA video mapping software, the media processed will be used on different surfaces and materials, in interaction with the performance itself.
