Franco Garuti

Franco Garuti

Director

He was born in Italy but has lived most of his life in Latin America and the US. He has shot in several countries now, and he understands well the idiosyncrasies, challenges and rewards of working within different cultures. He has developed a particular visual style in which he mixes believability and naturalism with a clean, modern look. One of his biggest assets is the way in which he can start with simple ideas and develop them into longer visual stories, creating the best possible films for the particular market they are aimed at. He never shies away from challenges and loves getting involved in finding the best emotional returns for any given story. In today’s digital storytelling, he excels at delivering believable, warm human emotions for brands. And this kind of emotional connection is what clients are looking for today.

Franco enjoys traveling and loves meeting new cultural challenges. When he is not stationed in Mexico City, he can be found in Los Angeles or spending time aboard his 40 foot sailboat, where he finds a bit of a slower pace from the other two places he calls home. Franco speaks fluent English and Spanish. He would love to bounce ideas back to you for your next job.
