GIANNI SPEZZANO

Senior Creative & AI Visual Specialist | Director & Storyteller 10 years traditional filmmaking × cutting-edge AI workflows

I'm a multidisciplinary creative with deep roots in traditional cinema and a forward-looking vision for AI video production. My journey started in front of and behind the camera—acting in high-profile Italian productions like Gomorra and The Jackal, while simultaneously developing my skills as a writer and director on independent projects.

After a decade working across acting, screenwriting, and directing award-winning short films, I made a strategic pivot: bringing artificial intelligence into the service of storytelling.

My academic background in semiotics and drama, combined with hands-on production experience, gives me a unique perspective on AI video tools. I don't use AI to replace cinema—I use it to make professional-grade video production faster, more accessible, and economically sustainable, while maintaining full narrative quality and creative control.
