THE HUMANS BEHIND

An independent film production studio.
Two perspectives. One shared life.

01 / LUÃ ARAÚJO.

CREATIVE DIRECTOR / DIRECTOR / DoP

Born in São Paulo and based in southern Spain, Luã brings a Brazilian and Mediterranean sensibility to his films. People, travel, culture, light and the changing phases of the moon keep him curious.

A director and cinematographer, he moves between international campaigns, personal films and sharing his craft through Canon workshops.

02 / MICA TARELLI.

PRODUCER / FILMMAKER / GAFFER

Argentine roots, a creative eye and a mate always close by. Mica brings intuition and a considered approach to production, filmmaking and light.

She shapes ideas, brings together the right crew and works across filming, lighting and editing — carrying the creative vision from the first conversation to the final frame.

OUR DAYS, IN BETWEEN. PERSONAL STORIES

OUR PHILOSOPHY

BE THE
MOONLIGHT.

Everything is connected. We believe in moving through life with gratitude, empathy and respect — in the people we meet, the places we discover and the energy we leave behind.

Like the moon, we don’t need to be the brightest light. We hope to reflect something meaningful into the world.
