About Denalda

My journey began with honors at La Sapienza University in Rome, followed by a deep dive into the craft of filmmaking at the New York Film Academy. Along the way, I've been fortunate to collaborate with remarkable professionals like screenwriter and acting coach Pascal Luneau (Marion Cotillard and Juliette Binoche); DoP Joseph DiGiovanna (Bloomingdale's, Kennedy Center, Hamilton on Broadway); and Stephen Hopkins, director in both film and music video realms (Elton John, The Rolling Stones). Now settled in Paris, my days are often immersed in the art of script editing, shaping narratives into their most potent form. I've also lent my expertise as a Writing Coordinator for L'Oréal Luxe and I have the honor of teaching at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Milan.
