​

Hi! My name is Andrea Secci and I'm a photographer, filmmaker and teacher based in St Albans, UK. I lived in London since 2014 and I'm from Italy, precisely Sardinia.

​

I earned a BA Film Honours with Foundation Year in Media at Middlesex University in London. During this time, I've developed many transferable skills through working in management roles. I've been involved in a variety of filmmaking and photography projects outside of university with actors and more experienced filmmakers.

 

Now, I work as a branding photographer and co-founder at Andrea Secci Photography and Digi Espresso, background artist/performer in film, HETV and TVC productions and I teach filmmaking at the Pauline Quirke Academy in Hemel Hempsted.

​

It’s never easy to name favourite films or filmmakers. I am passionate about comedy/drama, crime/thriller and antihero stories. But in the end, it's all about the specific film.

If I had to name three directors, screenwriters, films and television series that are great inspirations to me, those would be:

​

DIRECTORS: Federico Fellini, Stanley Kubrick

and Paul Thomas Anderson.

​

SCREENWRITERS: David Chase, Quentino Tarantino and Charlie Kaufman.

​

FILMS: 8 1/2, Goodfellas and The Shawshank Redemption.

​

TELEVISION SERIES: The Sopranos, Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul, Ozark.
