Director Biography - Hermes Mangialardo

Hi, I was born in 1975 in Copertino, a little town in the south of Italy.
I was 14 whem my brother took me to the cinema to see “The Wall”, and then my life changed.
I took a Flash animation Diploma at “Scuola Politecnica di Design” in Milan and in 2001 I started to product my own animations. After a Multimedia Design Master in Florence I started to write and developed many clips and animations, music videos and short videos that won many awards.
In 2006, with a crew of designer, I founded a multimedia agency, Plasmedia
(www.plasmedia.it).
In 2008 I write and animate the short serie URBAN JUNGLE for MTV ITALIA, about the various metropolitan animals (Metal kids, Darkers, Indie kids, Emo…).
From 2007 I started my visual experience (best Italian Vj in 2009)
and from 2011 my 3D Architectural Mapping experience
