Basketball, hip hop, movies of all types and genres as long as they are of quality or have Marlon Brando in them.
Writing, directing and editing shorts and music videos for myself when I am not working for the man
Check out the new video I just shot and edited for DJ Mesta
I am interested in world events and the idea of doing what I can to help make the world become better place for all types of people that respect human life and cultural differences. I hope Obama wins the next elections in The United States. It's time to start taking some of the trash out.
this is a scene from the first short film I ever acted in back in 2002 at Hofstra Uni in Long Island. I played the part of Max, an American Football player who thinks he's hot shit. I weigh like 20 pounds less now so keep that in mind if you are a casting director or director. But I am always down to lose or gain weight for a role. Anywayz, I spend the entire film trying to find out who the guy that my girlfriend left me for is so I can beat their ass. This is the scene in which I find out. Enjoy.

'Libera Informazione' dei Blaugrana - regia di Roberto Fusco 2008
Music
80 percent of what I listen to is hip hop and rap. I like various forms of dance music if I am dancing, minimal and trance in particular but I never listen to them outside of clubs. I got love for classic rock and roll, like The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Queen, most of the Beatles, John Lennon as a solo artist, etc.
Grunge I dug a lot as well, mainly Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Nirvana.
I would take about a week to do this properly. I can however say who my favorite 6 directors are: 1. Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee, Elia Kazan, Stanley Kubrick, and then about 30 of them tied for 6th place. This mocumentary 'Death of a President' I found particularly interesting and definitely recommend it
Television
Chappelle Show. I miss that show damnit. I still don't understand why Dave Chappelle can't have his own show where he calls all of the shots, if the problem with the old show was his lack of creative freedom and that he felt like a puppet.
The Sopranos. It was the most brilliant television of all time. It seams to do it injustice even calling it 'Television'. I think they should really pay the actors and creative staff something outrageous and do another 3 seasons. They would have to create new characters now, especially since they killed Christopher off. But he can always come back on as a ghost and still get high and drive Tony nuts.
Books
Crime and Punishment, The Bluest Eye, On the Road, Women (by Bukowski), and some Edgar Allen Poe short stories. I am ashamed to say that I don't really read much anymore. I read like crazy from high school to the completion of my masters almost two years ago but nothing since. All I do is work. If I read something now is because I am translating it editing it. And I read books on film and directors and actors.
Heroes
God first and foremost.My father who taught me how to work hard and that I could achieve anything if I put my mind to it and worked hard and ethically.
2Pac- He was a genius that also passed away way before his time.
This dude is seriously nuts and that's what I love about him. He used to be one of my heros back in the day, before I realized how fucking psychotic he really was. But I still got love for the dude. This clip is hilarious.
Brad Pitt- Not so much of a hero but more of a current role model in film.
Marlon Brando: For being the best actor of all time. When he died I felt I lost an uncle. Mind you I never actually met the man in person
Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro: For being the natural descendants of Brando.
Spike Lee: For being able to perfectly insert politically strong and provocative themes in commercial studio films.
Snoop Dogg: For having the coolest vocabulary, having directed porns and coached little league football. I love people who are eclectic like that. His last album was stone cold amazing, The Blue Carpet Treatment, so people need check it out and give it a fare chance as an album and not just write it off saying that he didn't have a hot album since his first.

Born in Turin, Italy and raised and educated between England and the United States, PIERO PASSATORE considers himself a citizen of the world. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Film and Theater from the City University of New York Baccalaureate Program and has a Master of Arts Degree in American Studies from the University of Turin.
Piero is the proprietor of Passatore Productions, a small production company based in Turin, Italy, whose main mission is to develop and produce feature length films with international appeal that aim, from the very inception and conceptual development, to be internationally distributed. Passatore Productions specializes in producing films that are set in Italy, taking full advantage of Turin’s and the Piedmont region’s natural, architectural and scenic beauty; have international casts; and are primarily filmed in English. Passatore Productions also provides production companies translation services from Italian to English and English to Italian, ideal for the preparation of dialogues and subtitles, and produces quality short films, music videos, and documentaries. The most recent translation commissions include: On the Road to Daytona, a documentary for the Discovery Channel; I Moscerini and Il Pavimento, two short stories for Italian author Roberto Rossi; I Diffidati, a screenplay for Verni Productions; Pensieri Segretti, screenplay by Pasquale Ruju (Dylan Dog comic books) for Cabiria Pictures; (Eu)demonia, an epic poem by Giuseppina Amodei for Fabrizio Portalupi; and Bianco e Nero, screenplay by Simone Nipote.
In addition to managing his production company, Piero has also dedicated much of his time to developing his thespian career. All throughout college, he acted in numerous college plays and short films, as well as working on large film and television sets such as Rescue Me, Third Watch, Law & Order. He was also a staff theater and film critic for two weekly college publications, The Brooklyn College Kingsman and the Hunter College Envoy. However, his professional acting career took off in 2006, when he acting in three feature films: The Etruscan Mask by Ted Nicolaou, Appuntamento ad Ora Insolita by Stefano Coletta, and La Via Via Del Peccato by Paolo Chiambretto.
Piero’s accomplishments include his role as Director, Co-producer, Screenwriter, Editor and Lead Actor in the music video of critically acclaimed Blues singer Dario Lombardo’s Lonesome Blues, which was an official selection at the 2007 Cyborg Film Festival, La Cittá in Corto, Corso Visione 2007 and Visionaria 2007. He also wrote, directed, and edited the video art piece Progetto 999: Il Fuoco Che é in Te, an art exhibition on the theme of fire at the Ecomuseo del Settimo, which in 2007 was screened at the Troppea Film Festival, the Invasione Dei Ultra Corti Film Festival, The Cyborg Film Festival, VideoCorto Nettuno Film Festival, Corto Visione Film Festival and the Visionaria Film Festival. In the world of Hip-Hop, Piero directed and co-produced 2Night Television’s Notte Bianca Olimpica and RTL Television’s A Thursday Night with DJ Mesta; he also shot, produced, and edited DJ Mesta’s new music video Reggaeton Anthem 2008, and did camerawork and second unit directing for Esa’s videoclip Salta Abordo. Lastly, for the Italian Community Theatre of Benzenhurst, New York, he directed the play Piú Grande by playwright Angelo Rago.
Piero’s current projects have teamed him up with several well-known writers, producers, and directors and promise to propel him with repute into the world of feature films. He is currently producing the feature length film In The Eyes of Joana (written by Judianny Compres and directed by Fellipe Barbosa), has co-written and is co-producing Pensieri Segreti (co-written by Pasquale Ruju and Fabrizio Portalupi and directed by Fabrizio Portalupi) in collaboration with Cabiria Productions, and is directing and co-producing a documentary about Italy’s hip hop culture with Wintergecko Studios, Precision Publishing, and Detour Productions Pizza, Pasta, Mafia & Hip Hop.
Piero has always ardently believed that in order to be a successful producer and director one must also have first-hand knowledge of and experience in all other roles involved in the production and realization of a film. Thanks to his wealth of experience as an actor, music video director, film critic (two years staff critic for The Brooklyn College Kingsman and the Hunter College Envoy), screenwriter, and assistant director, Piero is an extremely well-rounded and capable producer that understands all areas of a film’s creation.

Piero é il titolare della Passatore Productions, una piccola casa di produzione avente sede a Torino, ilcui scopo principale é di svillupare e produrre lungometraggi d’interesse internazionale che mirano, sia alla creazione del soggetto stesso, e alla distribuzione a livello internazionale. La Passatore Productions é specializzata nella produzione di film e documentary ambientati in Italia e sfruttano al meglio le bellezze naturali e architettoniche della città di Torino e della regione Piemonte, e usufruisce della partecipazione di attori internazionali che recitano più che altro in inglese.
Passatore Productions offre alle produzioni anche un servizio accurato di traduzioni dall’italiano all’inglese e dall’inglese all’italiano, ideale per la preparazioni dei dialoghi e la sottotitolazione dei film, e infine produce cortometraggi e videoclip musicali di qualità.

Durante la sua carriera accademica Passatore ha lavorato sodo anche sulla carriera come attore, recitando in numerose produzioni teatrali universitarie, cortometraggi, e come figurante in numerosi telefilm e film girati a New York. Ha lavorato anche per due anni come critico teatrale e cinematografico per due pubblicazioni settimanali universitarie, The Brooklyn College Kingsman e The Hunter College Envoy. Nel 2006,ha inizio la sua carriera professionale come attore , recitando in tre lungometraggi: La Maschera Etrusca di Ted Nicolaou, Appuntamento ad Ora Insolita di Stefano Coletta, e La Via Via Del Peccato di Paolo Chiambretto.
I successi di Passatore includono anche il videoclip-cortometraggio Lonesome Blues (progetto sostenuto dalla Film Commission Torino) della Dario Lombardo Blues Gang, dove ha lavorato come regista, sceneggiatore, co-produttore, montatore, e attore principale, che nel 2007 fu selezionato per il Cyborg Film Festival, La Cittá in Corto Film Festival, Corto Visione Film Festival e Visionaria Film Festival. Ha scritto, diretto e montato il video-arte Progetto 999: Il Fuoco Che é in Te, che fu proiettato alla mostra Morphe Arche sul tema del fuoco presso l’Ecomuseo del Settimo per tre settimane, e nel 2007 fu selezionata per il Tropea Film Festival, Invasione Dei Ultra Corti Film Festival, il Cyborg Film Festival, il VideoCorto Nettuno Film Festival, il Corto Visione Film Festival e il Visionaria Film Festival.
Per la televisione Passatore ha diretto e co-prodotto La Notte Bianca Olimpica per La 2Night Television e ha diretto e montatto A Thursday Night with DJ Mesta per la RTL, ha anche filmato, prodotto, e montato il nuovo videoclip di DJ Mesta, Reggaeton Anthem 2008. Per la comunità italiana di Benzenhurst, New York, ha diretto la commedia teatrale Piú Grande di Angelo Rago.
Attualmente sta producendo il lungometraggio Negli Occhi di Joana (scritto da Judianny Compres e diretto da Fellipe Barbosa), ha co-sceneggiato e sta lavorando come assistente alla regia Pensieri Segreti (co-sceneggiato da Pasquale Ruju e Fabrizio Portalupi e diretto da Fabrizio Portalupi), e sta co-producendo e dirigendo Pizza, Pasta, Mafia & Hip Hop, un documentario sulla scena hip hop e rap di Torino e provincia, assieme alla Wintergecko Studios, Precision Publishing, e la Detour Productions.
Piero Passatore crede fortemente che per essere un produttore e regista di successo si dovrebbero già avere conoscenze e esperienze in prima persona nei vari ruoli integrali per la produzione e la regia di un film. Le sue esperienze come attore, regista di video clip e cortometraggi, critico, sceneggiatore, e assistente del regista, lo rendeno particolarmente portato e preparato per affrontare il lavoro di regista e produttore su produzioni serie.

Who I'd like to meet:
Old friends that I have lost touch with over the years. In particular Saquib Malik. If you are out there then this message is for you "Damnit dude, what the hell happened to you?!? Meaning how come it seems like you fell off the face of the earth, I have tried everything to track you down save higher a private investigator
Progetto 999 : Il fuoco che è in te (Video Art)
Italian rappers that could benefit from low budget music videos made by a future auter film director, meaning me. All Italian rap artists would benefit a lot from well made, meaning written, directed, and edited music videos. Things that are original, have personality and film making craft to them. I think that every mix tape or album demo should have at least one video circulating on youtube or metacafe. But if the videos are directed by the rappers themselves, who never went to film school nor have worked on a professional film set, then maybe having them circulate too much on youtube is not a great idea.
Then I would like to meet and establish professional relationships with various film people in general. Mainly screenwriters, actors (in Italy or close by), directors, assistant editors, and especially producers who have an I for talent and our actually out looking for it.
