LOI's
staff is growing,
and a new roman
"detachment"
has been activated
and began to produce
models we will
see in the prologue
of Volume 2. |
The
innovation regarding
what has been
done so far will
include the use
of real models,
both miniatures
and 1:1, enabling
us to convey a
realism impossible
to achieve only
with 3D.
This will be carried
out by Tommaso
Ragnisco (foto),
artistic director
of this Volume.
Tommaso will coordinate
his work with
the director and
scriptwriter Angelo
Licata,
the producer and
visual effects
coordinator Pierfilippo
Siena,
concept artist
Alessio
Nocerino,
and all the matte
painting artists
and 3D modelers,
to define and
design the visual
rendering of scenographic
elements in the
film.
Tommaso was born
in Rome, completed
the Industrial
Design program
in I.S.I.A. also
in Rome, in 1995,
and the same year
joined Cristina
Croce to
found the '21st
Century Design'
studio, now known
as 21lab
(
www.21lab.net
), in association
with Alessandro
Spalletta,
Maurizio
De Vincentiis
and
Marco Flore.

A
few
words
from
director
Angelo
Licata
about
Volume
2.
Greetings
everyone.
I
address
the
supporters,
associate
producers,
fans,
who
are
collaborating,
who
will
collaborate
and
who
wish
to
support
us
but
still
don't
know
how... |
| |
When
towards
the
end
of
the
first
Volume
I
was
asked
what
was
Volume
2
going
to
be
like,
I
did
not
answer.
The
effort
that
Davide
and
I
had
employed
for
this
enterprise,
without
obviously
forgetting
the
arduous
task
performed
by
Gianni
Melito
and
Riccardo
Gallino,
was
so
huge
that
the
accomplishment
of
Volume
2
seemed
like
an
enterprise
beyond
our
capabilities.
When
I
told
the
second
part
to
Davide,
who
rarely
expresses
his
opinions
in
an
elated
manner,
he
surprised
with
his
reply:
It's
really
cool!
But
it's
a
huge
amount
of
work!
he
wisely
continued
afterwards.
I
have
been
reflecting
over
a
long
period
on
the
possibility
of
continuing
this
"game",
because
after
all,
since
it
is
not
for
profit,
that's
what
it
is,
a
game;
but
the
ones
who
convinced
me
to
continue
were
not
the
actors,
nor
my
best
friends
or
those
who
have
helped
us
with
so
much
effort
through
these
years.
