Body
A face. A gesture. A place.
I’m Tommaso Pizzamiglio, a film director based in Milan.
Tommaso
Pizzamiglio
I’m interested in what a scene can reveal before anyone explains it: the way a person moves, a silence, the relation between a body and its surroundings. Sometimes that becomes intimacy. Sometimes humour, tension or something less easy to name.
I work across commercial films, branded documentaries and AI filmmaking. The approach changes with the story; I look for the people, the atmosphere and the details that give each film its own life.
Alongside directing, I work as an executive producer at I Sognatori. That production experience is part of how I approach a film, from an initial idea to its realisation.
People
Casting and performance give a scene its centre. A professional actor, a real person or a generated performance each calls for a different kind of attention.
Atmosphere
Light, movement, sound and the physical setting work together. I’m interested in the tension between what a place shows and what it makes us feel.
Live action / AI
I work with both. For Buzzi, my first AI film, I directed the piece and generated its video, music and voiceover myself. On each new project, the creative approach and my realisation scope are defined around the brief.
