About Sergio Minnici Films

Born in Germany and raised between Italy and Spain, my journey through the lens was shaped by a global skateboarding filmmaker career. This diverse background bestowed upon me a unique perspective, one that transcends boundaries and embraces a 360-degree approach to storytelling. My passion for music fuels my creativity, infusing each frame with rhythm and emotions. Inspired by the organic nature of film, I utilize manual cinematic lenses to imbue each wedding film with a distinctive touch, embracing imperfections and nuances that evoke the authentic warmth and depth of true cinematic artistry.

Behind the Brand

What draws you to wedding videography?

Wedding videography is my passion—an art form that captures fleeting moments akin to my roots in skateboarding. Just like in skateboarding, where each moment is unique and can’t be replicated, I’m fascinated by the unrepeatable essence of weddings. Every location, every person is a world unto themselves. My mission is to understand their vision and craft an authentic narrative. It’s this sensitivity to the moment that drives my storytelling

How would you describe your videography style?

Drawing from diverse artistic influences, I aim to transcend wedding trends, creating unique and unforgettable cinematic experiences for each couple. Central to my process is selecting music that resonates with the story, always avoiding the predictable and cliché, and instead seeking out original and unconventional tracks.

Moreover, I’m incredibly meticulous in every aspect of my work, from the composition of each shot to the choice of lenses and cameras. I exclusively work with digital cinema cameras paired with manual lenses, foregoing the convenience of stabilized cameras and autofocus in favor of achieving a truly cinematic look. This commitment to authenticity and quality ensures that each frame not only tells a story but also evokes a sense of timeless beauty and sophistication

What inspires you creatively?

I find inspiration for my wedding films in unexpected places, drawing from a diverse range of influences. Cinema plays a significant role, as I’m constantly studying the work of filmmakers who push the boundaries of storytelling. Art exhibitions, music videos, and even my background in skateboarding contribute to my creative process. Living in a multicultural big city exposes me to a melting pot of influences, enriching my perspective on storytelling. Interestingly, I often find inspiration in unlikely sources outside the wedding world, as I believe creativity knows no boundaries.

What is it that makes a film magical?

The magic of a film lies in its ability to capture the essence of a moment and transform it into an unforgettable experience. Like a craftsman, filmmakers carefully weave every detail, creating a unique and compelling work of art. It’s this balance between creativity and authenticity that imbues the film with its intrinsic magic

What advice would you give couples when selecting their wedding videographer?

Selecting a videographer isn’t just about technical skills; it’s finding an artist who can authentically depict your journey. Opt for someone who truly grasps your narrative and can immortalize it in a manner that deeply resonates with you both. Remember, while trends may shift, your wedding film will endure for a lifetime.

Your dream location to shoot a wedding?

Choosing a dream location is tough because I’ve been fortunate to shoot weddings in some truly breathtaking places. Italy holds a special place in my heart, as does any locale rich in culture and beauty. However, what truly excites me is venturing into uncharted territory, exploring new countries, and immersing myself in diverse customs and cultures. It’s the thrill of discovery and the opportunity to capture the essence of something fresh and unique that drives my imagination
