About

Hi, I’m Paolo Altruda. I’m a dynamic, fast learner with a yearning for growth, always looking for opportunities to push my creativity and learn new skills. I thrive on tackling challenging projects and delivering results that resonate.

My background spans ESL studies, formal film training, and hands-on work across São Paulo, Vancouver, and Toronto. I’ve edited commercials and short films, lit and directed on large sets, and I’ve freelanced as a filmmaker directing and shooting commercials and company videos. I’m excited to contribute my energy and grow further in the right role.
