Hello my friends!

You've watched many of my videos, but I have a very different take this time. I had a very ambitious project in mind and I tried to get in touch directly with Sony. They backed my project: to film a video by the moonlight. But not a time-lapse, a real landscape video where no still images where involved. If you have tried something like this you know that it's very, very hard. But I wanted to give it a try, even if no one else ever tried. That's how Moonlight Dream was born. I used an A7S3 and 1.4-2.0 lenses used always wide open and provided by Sony Italy. Original music is mine too. I'm very proud of this little son...

Some great low light cinematography and music. When are you going to start directing feature films?

To contradict Oscar Wilde, I hope you mean this is your latest video and not your last ... :-)

Thanks Mark! It would be a dream for me. I'm trying to improve day by day and this one was a step towards the right direction (I guess)

Thanks Wendy! Music came first and inspired my cinematography.

Horrible typo, can you edit it for me? (I can't change the title). Thanks Paul ^____^

Wow, an amazing piece of work, absolutely stunning.
Draws you in with the people facing and looking at the moon and continues with beautiful landscape in the light of the moon.
Very well done.

Thanks Debbi, I really wanted to lead people into that kind of mood. That location is a very old Roman amphiteater I had the chance to use at night thanks to the Italian Ministry of Culture. There was magic there :)
