Available to hire
Hi, I’m Matteo Alessandro Voglino, a writer, screenwriter and editor from Acqui Terme, Italy. I specialize in narrative and screenwriting for children and young adults, and I have published short stories with Einaudi Ragazzi.
While I don’t yet have direct experience in videogame writing, I have worked extensively as a writer and screenwriter across film, television and theatre. My work focuses on character-driven storytelling, dialogue and narrative structure, and I have experience in script development, editing and collaborative creative processes.
I’m currently developing original projects, including two novels, and I’m very interested in exploring narrative design within games, especially in smaller, more experimental teams.
I enjoy shaping stories through strong structure, voice and characters. I am fluent in Italian and have advanced English, with solid skills in storytelling, copywriting and social media management.
