about cardanobolognesi

Michele and Francesco are two (very tall!) Italian directors who love listening to and telling stories — preferably around a table full of good food.

They met at film school in Milan and have been playing with cameras together ever since. 

Through writing, photography, and video, the two directors transform ideas into narratives with a strong emotional impact, distinguished by an elegant style and a deep attention to storytelling. Their goal is to tell powerful stories  whether in the few seconds of a commercial, in the authenticity of a documentary or in a single photographic frame.

With their realistic and cinematic style  they’ve directed campaigns for Parmigiano Reggiano, Giovanni Rana, Unicredit, Ria, Pampers, Kinder, and Nestlé. Their work for National Geographic has taken them around the world, and their short films have been featured in international festivals.
