About Lino

Hi, I’m Lino!

I’m a former professional dancer.
When I ended my professional career as a dancer, I realized that I wanted to continue working in theatre, television, and film, so I began managing, organizing, and coordinating event and video productions.
From 2007 to 2012, I worked in event production for IMG Artist in London and Premiere Eventi e Spettacolo in Prato, covering the role of production manager (concerts, live shows, and theater tours).
In 2013, I embarked on a new professional path in audiovisual production and, thanks to my background in the entertainment industry and my organizational skills, my reputation in the television, video, and film production sector grew rapidly, both locally and internationally.
Since then, I have completed more than 120 projects: television and film productions, commercials, documentaries, and reports. I have worked in all roles in the production department, as an assistant director, assistant producer, and production manager. Since then, I have completed more than 120 projects: television and film productions, commercials, documentaries, and reports.
