About Iacopo
I was born in 1982 in Naples, Italy. With an Italian father and a mother who is a mixture of French and English, I’ve always had lots of opportunity and desire to explore different cultures. I spent my school years in my home city studying fine arts, architecture and sculpture at the Liceo Artistico (an art school). At 18 I moved for the first tome to the UK to study Film, Media and Video Production at New Bucks College. Since graduating 2003 I’ve lived and worked in the UK, Spain and Australia, but more importantly established a filmmaking career that has taken me all over Europe. My fluency in Italian, English, Spanish, French and international experience within the film and video industry has also led to many international film and theatre companies employing me as part of their Italian production team. Since 2015 I'm established in Bristol where I work as Multimedia Officer for the University of the West of England. Released in 2018, my short film "N" was shown in more than 50 festivals around the world and has won several awards.
