Nicola Bianchi (Rimini, 1992)
In 2015, he graduated in Economics and moved to Milan, where he continued to pursue his passion for documentary photography and filmmaking.

He returned to Rimini and in 2019 graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts. In the same year, he began his career in art direction, working with several international agencies within the WPP and Publicis groups.

In 2022, Nicola co-founded Mixtape Studio with Claudio Braccini, an independent production company that creates and produces photographic and video campaigns for brands such as Luxottica, Loro Piana, Ermenegildo Zegna, and Generali Assicurazioni.

In 2024, following the release of “The Platinotypist” (co-directed with Claudio Braccini), Nicola aims to make his directorial debut with an observational documentary titled “Daphne,” which explores the life of a transgender drag queen in Milan.
