00:01Ferdinando Shana, the photographer of the shadows, in our opinion perfectly interprets the idea and philosophy of the Impreza Film Award and therefore contributes to communicating the values of business culture.
00:18Ferdinando Shana is an artist, a true artist.
00:22He likes to call himself a craftsman, but a true artist, a true poet of images.
00:30He interprets the values of the Impreza Film Award philosophy, because his story is truly one of business.
00:40In addition to having worked for companies, which he contributed to the development and growth through his work, he himself is a success story and he himself interprets the values of business culture.
00:51A strong bond with his roots, the territory, a propensity for internationalization.
01:00From Beguria he went to Milan and came to Paris and a high value of culture in his training and in his work.
01:09So the values of business culture also include culture, literature and images.
01:13Awards are useful because they give you the opportunity to do more and more what you want.
01:23And in this case it has its own originality because it is a style that I had never considered before and I have to say it pleasantly surprises me compared to the film I made.
01:31There would be no photographer Shana if it weren't for this man, this real person.
01:41So it was more about finding the right dramaturgy to tell the many aspects of his work and his life.
01:46I actually believe that cinema is one of the best places to have a discussion about photography.
01:56I was talking about this with the film's author Roberto Ando, because while in reality it is very difficult to light a photo, think of all the photography exhibitions you have been to, where it is difficult to understand how to eliminate reflections, what is the right source of lighting.
02:10In cinema, on the other hand, the photos are perfectly lit throughout and uniformly.
02:18Furthermore, in my opinion, the fact that they are still images in a moving flow gives them a hypnotic, magnetic character.
02:29So, paradoxically, I believe that cinema is a particularly versatile tool for discussing photographs, but I have always considered my work as a photographer as a profession,
02:38and so it is possible that someone who makes, say, leather goods only makes belts, but it is also possible that they make shoes, cartouches, and so on.
02:53It is not a question of choosing, it is a question of trying to do one's job well in all the sectors in which one is called to do it.
02:59A film, even if it is a portrait of me, belongs to the person who made the portrait.
03:07This is a film festival.
03:09The award concerns the film.
03:11I did not make the film.
03:13I am very happy for Roberto Ando.
03:18In any case, an award is always a gratification.
03:21It is always a sign that what you have done has aroused interest and appreciation and of course it can only make you happy.
