Thinking about the future has always intrigued me, although I think the idea of knowing what is going to happen takes the fun out of life.  Also, I think it's inevitable to think about what will happen with climate change and pollution, all that uncertainty causes me a bit of anxiety and depresses me especially because of the UN announcement that there is no return... But if I could travel to the future, I think I would like to go to the time when travel in the universe is already possible.  I have always been fascinated by the universe, its immensity and how little we know about it. When I see movies about traveling to other planets or galaxies it makes me very curious. If I could travel the universe I would like to go to the Andromeda galaxy because it is the closest. Although it is said that in 4 billion years Andromeda will eat our galaxy, I want to imagine that space travel will be possible before that happens and that the Andromeda galaxy will only be closer.  I wou...

 Hi everyone, I've always dreamed of working in the audiovisual medium, like in music videos, series or movies designing the visual world of a production, so being an art director would be like a dream.  What I like about working as an art director, is to be able to create and design the visual style that a project requires, to think about the details and what can be communicated through them, the idea of being able to define the color palette, the materialities, the silhouette of the costumes, for the universe of each project, I love it.

  Hello!  A few days ago I went to see Dune at the cinema and it's definitely my favorite movie at the moment. Dune is about a future where noble families fight over a desert planet where "the spice", the most coveted substance in the universe, is mined.  I was really looking forward to seeing the movie because the trailer looked so good and because of its cast, with actors like Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa, Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, the latter two who I think are among the most acclaimed young actors of the moment and I love them.  When I finally got to see it, I went with my significant other and my mom, we hadn't been to the movies in a long time, so I was excited.  I loved the movie, the color palette, the costumes and the music created by Hans Zimmer (who also did the music for Interestellar), being able to see it and listen to it in the theater was the best.  Dune is my favorite movie because aesthetically it is very beautiful, I wo...
