About

My name is Guilherme Festa, and I am a film director and creative producer. I hold a degree in Advertising from FAAP and completed my studies in Film Directing at the New York Film Academy in New York City. I have directed advertising films for major brands such as Chevrolet, Netflix, Loctite, Danone, Nextel, Shell, Sky Brasil, and Gol Linhas Aéreas, among others. In addition to my commercial work, I directed a short film in New York titled Life After Her, which was selected and screened at several international film festivals, including Cannes and the Madrid International Film Festival.

After several years working as a director, I decided to pursue a more corporate career path and spent three years at Sony Pictures Entertainment as a Creative Producer. During this time, I developed creative campaigns from concept to script, directed on set during promotional shoot days, and later edited the resulting material into promotional videos for Sony channels and feature films, including theatrical trailers for Sony Pictures.

Alongside this corporate experience, I have continued directing films and working as an editor, staying closely connected to the creative side of storytelling. Moving forward, I aim to keep developing projects that allow me to merge directing, editing, and creative producing.
