During our discussion, Filippo shared his experience of navigating specialization in the film industry, and the pressures that come with deciding to focus on one area of expertise. From working on smaller projects to bigger, more intense ones, we dove into the different scenarios Filippo has faced in his career and how his decision to focus on either being a DP or colorist is gradually developing over time.
