Acerca de Raphael Tonelli:
Soy director de campañas publicitarias con amplia experiencia en creatividad y producción audiovisual.
Además, trabajo como director de fotografía (DOP) en campañas para marcas nacionales e internacionales, y actualmente me estoy adentrando en proyectos de ficción.
Como montador y colorista freelance, aporto una mirada estética y técnica en cada etapa de la postproducción.
Tras fundar mi propia productora en Brasil, busco oportunidades en España para seguir creciendo profesionalmente y colaborar en proyectos de gran impacto.
Experiencia
- Disney Plus // Direction Department - Lucky Luke Series (Sep 2024 / Nov 2024)
Completed an on-set internship as part of my Master's in Film & TV Production and Directing (Makkers School, Madrid). I joined the Spanish team in the Direction Department of the upcoming Lucky Luke series, a France–Spain co-production for Disney Plus France.
Supported the direction team on set, assisting the 1st AD and 2nd AD with cast logistics, talent coordination, and daily scheduling. Helped ensure the well-being of actors and crew while collaborating closely with production assistants (PAs) to manage on-set operations. This experience deepened my understanding of cross-cultural production workflows and the organizational structure behind large-scale international series.
