BIO

Nicolò Bravetta is an Italian director whose visual style sets him apart and distinguishes his storytelling. At the age of twelve, he started making films, borrowing his father’s camcorder and casting his classmates as actors. 

He began his career in the film industry covering various roles. When he lived in Rome, he worked as 1st AD for a number of well-known Italian directors before taking the step to direct his own pieces.

He directed films for international campaigns by brands such as Maserati, Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Volvo, Fiat, Changan, Snow Queen, La Perla, Lanvin, Breil, Vogue, and others—working with agencies like Publicis, Leo Burnett, Saatchi & Saatchi, and Innocean Worldwide.

He is a musician and passionate about music, and this reflects in his work, which is particularly vibrant with rhythm. 

Currently, he is stepping into lifestyle, visual vignettes, and narrative storytelling. Besides working on commercials, he is developing his first television series.

He is also enthusiastically exploring the creative possibilities of AI-blended filmmaking, combining live action direction with AI tools, smart stage techniques, and CGI, he approaches AI like a creative extension — a tool to push storytelling and visual language beyond traditional limits.
