- "The Blurry World of Marcello Casagrande" won the Honorable Mention for Sound Design at Los Angeles Film Awards. (Despite the sonorous name and the very official look, it's one of those zillions of very small online festivals, but hey, it doesn't hurt!). The film was also screened at Cannes last week for That Film Festival.

- Happy to have transcribed, recorded and orchestrated some forgotten Italian music from the 1920's, written by composer Vittorio Ovazza with words by his brother Ettore Ovazza, who died in a concentration camp - a commission of Centro Primo Levi NY with the Elkann family. Featuring the violin of Emanuele Valle and tenor Francesco Pavesi singing the song "Attesa" on a day off his US tour.

- Stay tuned for the next screening of "Judas" by Pier Luigi Sposato, an epic feature where me and the director really tried to cross every boundary with sound narration. (Me and the guy are already working on his next film, plus he will sign a music clip from the forthcoming album).
