About

I’m Luca Maxia, a filmmaker and Director of Photography based in Selargius (CA), Italy. I work across cinematography and post-production, and I also write and develop projects—from TV series pilots to documentaries and horror-leaning fiction—bringing a strong visual approach grounded in lighting, camera movement, and story.

Recently I’ve been involved in multiple AVAFM/GRAND TOUR projects in Florence and have contributed as editor, screenwriter, and cinematographer on genre and documentary work. With training in Cinema and Audiovisual production at LABA in Florence and experience teaching digital video and cinematography, I enjoy collaborating on set as well as shaping the final cut in DaVinci Resolve and Premiere.
