About me:

i was born and raised a few blocks away from cinecitta' studios in rome, italy, and studied at the liceo artistico. i dropped out from the university in rome to come to los angeles where i worked for many years in the development of film and tv projects. In the year 2000 i started to direct tv spots and have won a over a dozen awards (I'm not sayin' I'm good, just sayin' if you submit for awards, you're bound to win some). I love my wife of 22 years and I freakin' love my two amazing daughters. i recently wrapped up 2 seasons as art director for cartoon network on the emmy award winning tv series “class of 3000” starring the voice and music of andré benjamin (andré 3000 outkast). I just completed my fifth documentary on the indy racing season for firestone which included shooting at the indy 500 and that's always a kick in the ass! standing few feet away from a car doing 245+ mph… as a photographer i've shot hundreds of models and celebrities, including the obvious ones i posted on my blog, and a book is in the works. my short film “winter”, a psychological thriller, premiered in the usa last december 2at the 2008 ZERO FILM FEST as a "closing night selection". WINTER is now making the rounds in italy and will be premiering there in august 2009. you can also view more of my live-action work on www.youtube.com/valerioventura and leave me a comment. ..

    LESSONS IN LIFE
    ~Author Unknown

    There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

    The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.

    When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.

    The first son said the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.

    The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.

    He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.

    If you give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, and the fulfillment of your fall.

    MORAL:
    Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
    Don't judge life by one difficult season.
     
    Hugs,
    Shawna
