How did this guy become a black-belt in something as elusive as “tone”? By devouring and practicing every form of creative work under the sun, of course! Everything from a decade in the trenches of advertising and design to writing award-winning fiction and composing music. Not only does Luiz know how to reach an audience — he has the secret sauce that has them engaging with it.
Films, music videos, branded content, live events, documentaries, TV series and commercials. Several years of developing and realizing a wide variety of projects in both the US and Brazil means Gabriel knows almost every trick in the book… Including the ones learned the hard way. This is the guy you need on your team for a successful production. Not only hatches up dreams, but makes them happen.
Our Swedish army knife has worn practically every kind of hat on film sets across three continents. His broad experience ensures that all the pieces of the production-puzzle fit together, while his outside perspective provides novel solutions. Brazil is not for beginners — and this gringo is not.
Give this guy a situation, a person, a product or even a loose idea and he’s sure to find the story hidden underneath. Not only the beginning, middle and end — but the invaluable emotional component that has us connecting to it. And if there’s anything he’s better at than finding a story, it’s telling it — through writing, producing, directing and editing.
