CLIENTS 

JOSÉ PADILHA

Film Director

 

"I’ve know Felipe for over 20 years. He’s a faithful long time collaborator.
Very few people in the industry are able to conduct the storytelling the way Felipe does. I had the privilege of working with him in many projects and profited a lot from his keen and sharp eye and his extreme sensibility for emotions. The documentaries we worked on have been widely recognized and took part in festivals like Tribeca, Sundance, CPH:DOX, Havana, Rotterdam and many others..."

CARLOS SALDANHA

Director of Ferdinand, Rio and The Ice Age

 

"I had the pleasure of working with Felipe in the short film Pas-de-Deux, a segment of Rio, I Love You, that I directed. He got me very well recommended by weight names in the Brazilian market and did a beautiful job. Felipe understood my vision and execution with great sensitivity and mastery. I'm sure that anyone who has had the good fortune to have Felipe on board, as editor or consultant, will see his film to its full potential."

WALTER SALLES

Academy Award Nominee,Golden Globe and Berlin's Golden Bear Winner,
Director of "Central Station", "Motorcycle Diaries"and "On The Road"

 

"I had the pleasure of collaborating with Felipe in several other projects (musical documentaries, fiction projects). I have great admiration for your ability to think a movie, and to re-imagine it from the footage. In the same way, the always original options he proposes for the narrative always surprise me positively. He is a highly committed contributor who helps to empower the projects with which he is involved."
