Attending courses at the University of Genoa based on international studies, I am an expert in writing historical and geopolitical articles. In addition to the skills obtained with my bachelor degree in International and cooperation science, I am passionate about everything that has to do with creative writing (narrative, screenplay and fiction) and with cinema and theatre. In the last 10 years I have followed several courses taught by international acting coaches based on the Stanislavskij method, as well as regularly studying these theatrical techniques. Actually I'm attending a course based on the new screenwriting and narrative techniques.

Hi, I’m Luca, a scriptwriter and narrative strategist based in Rome. I write high-retention scripts for YouTube and digital media: documentaries, explainers, and narrative formats (including sci-fi). I’m especially strong when the topic is complex and the goal is clarity + momentum. What you get - Hooks that actually hook (without clickbait) - Clean structure (setup → escalation → payoff) - A voice built for spoken delivery: rhythm, breath, punch - Research distilled into story (and fact-checked when needed) - Scripts that are easy to edit: clear beats, transitions, on-screen notes if requested Typical projects - YouTube documentary scripts (10–30 minutes) - Explainer videos (brand or educational) - Story-driven formats (fantasy/sci-fi/horror, character-led narration) - Combat sports scripts (MMA/boxing breakdowns + story + highlights/timestamps) - Philosophy based writings My background I’m trained in screenwriting & film production (Sapienza) and I studied cognitive science and philosophy. Before writing full-time, I worked as a consultant and led a grant-funded educational media project - useful experience when a project needs both creative direction and reliable delivery. How I work - Brief + references (channels you like / tone / target viewer) - Outline or beat map (optional, but I recommend it for long-form) - Draft → revision pass (tightening pacing, clarity, voice) - Final delivery in Google Docs (or your workflow) AI (straight, non-cringe) I use AI like a writers’ room assistant: fast brainstorming, alternatives, compression, and structure checks. The final script is written and controlled by me - original voice, clean logic, and no “generic ChatGPT vibe”. If your project requires no AI at all, I can work fully manual. 📍Rome | Remote | English & Italian If you send me one reference video you love and one you hate, I can match your tone very quickly.

😎As a prominent Spanish, english and italian on-camera spokesperson and globally recognized video producer, I've elevated visual storytelling to new heights. I've collaborated with renowned brands such as Netflix, Falabella, Papa John's, Subway, and dozens more. Not everyone is my ideal client, but we could be a PERFECT FIT if you're thinking: 🤔 📌 "I just want to delegate content and receive a video with good lighting, sound, a competent on-camera professional, and a good final result." 📌 "Hiring a team to create my videos is too expensive and requires training." 📌 "I need my social media pages to have an aspirational image." 📌 "I want someone proactive who can contribute ideas and assist with the Spanish, english and italian language." 📌 "I don't want to spend more than 5 minutes per week reviewing content." Working with me, you'll... 💎 Maintain control over the final content outcome (takes you LESS THAN 5 MINUTES per week to approve content). 💎 Ensure a robust and growing social media presence for your business, keeping the connection with your followers and customers. 💎 Have confidence that your social media videos are in good hands and will yield optimal results. 📱 Some types of videos we specialize in are commercials, promos, sales, explainers, demos, unboxings, and social media ads. Ready to take your project to the next level? Let's talk on Upwork! 🚀🎥
