Luigi Benvisto is an Italian cinematographer born in Varese, Italy. His enthusiasm for films was inspired by his father who took him to the theater weekly, cementing his zest for movies. When he was only a few years old he started to lose his hearing. With time more and more frequencies were gone and he had to wear hearing aids since then. Unable to rely on sound, his eyes became the most powerful tool. What he couldn't glean from the auditory conversations, he picked up from visual clues, capturing the slightest changes and facial expressions, diving deep into details and discovering that what you see tells more than what you hear. Later in life his parents gifted him with a small SD camera and Luigi started shooting short movies and small projects, educating himself to filmmaking and cinematography. At the age of 25, Luigi's work was noticed by an Italian producer. He moved to Rome to fulfill his passion, where he lived in a garage and worked on movie sets for free. In 2008 he received a 2-years scholarship to study filmmaking at NYFA. Less than three months later he was in New York City, with very little knowledge of the English language and nowhere to reside. Having established himself since those years, with a full understanding of the English language, Luigi worked on countless projects, shooting music videos, commercials, features, documentaries and fashion films all around the world. He traveled from Atlanta to Alaska, from Los Angeles to London, from Seattle to New York.
