Riccardo Chemello discovered his passion for filmmaking through the sport of Parkour, where he developed an extremely dynamic visual aesthetic that allowed him to stand out in the commercial market. He directed international campaigns for prestigious brands such as Armani, Disney, and Red Bull, before making his debut in cinema with a film related to the world of vampires called Dampyr. Dampyr is one of the most important and successful IPs of Sergio Bonelli Editore, and with a 15 million euro international co-production (Eagle Pictures, Brandon Box), it is set to become the first film adaptation of the Bonelli Cinematic Universe. The movie has been acquired by Sony Pictures for worldwide distribution.
