Nicole Bonomi
Project Manager
Nicole’s love for story telling was ever present but profoundly evoked in Milan in 2011 where she attained a diploma in Design at Instituto Marangoni. Textiles, light, shape, shadow and colour spoke their own language, and synchronising these elements ignited story telling in a way that later would give birth to Nicole’s love of cinematography.
In 2014 Nicole moved to London where she worked in media and film in more commercial settings, simultaneously she dabbled in acting and screenwriting. By 2016 she began producing TVCs and content more permanently and by mid 2017 Nicole finally moved into the feature film world.
