N.I., the first film shot on Red Digital Cinema’s Hydrogen Phone, is a short film about a romantic encounter that goes horribly wrong…or is it? Massimini was showcased in the annual 2018 SHOOT New Directors Showcase, one of several accolades that also includes two VFX Emmy® nominations. In association with Palo Pictures, N.I. stars Giorgia Whigham (The Punisher, 13 Reason's Why), David Meza (Millenials, In Echo Park) and features original score by The Angel. N.I. will be part of the discussion at “12 Months of 100 Years of the ASC,” a Samy's Cinemaworks event in L.A. on February 21, 2019, where Massimini, Francis Kenny ASC and Richard Crudo ASC will be showcased.

Director/Editor Bradley Ross brings StriVectin’s legacy of clinically proven, scientifically formulated skincare to life in the brand’s latest campaign. In addition to directing the campaign, Ross oversaw the editing process through Open Swim’s post-production division, further highlighting StriVectin as a leader in skincare solutions for aging and changing skin. Ross also called on Open Swim’s newly signed Director/Photographer Karen Haberberg for on-set photography and drone footage.
“It’s always fun to work on projects affiliated with products we like and believe in,” says Executive Producer Amyliz Pera. “On this shoot, we were able to garner footage for the StriVectin archive across multiple products and for multiple purposes. Testimonials, b-roll, social capture, stills, follow-up interviews – we had it covered. Karen Haberberg was such a delightful addition to our team. The Open Swim model, in which Directors and team members collaborate, continues to serve us and our clients well.
