About me

Graduated in Film Studies and Communication at Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado, São Paulo - Brazil in 2001.

Since College he has always pointed his career towards cinematography, working in all short films and various projects of his colleagues as he could.

Maurício worked up all the ranks in the camera department. By doing that, he got the chance to work with some great cinematographers and directors both Brazilian and from all over the globe. By participating in hundreds of different productions, features, TV, commercials, documentaries, he learned his craft to later become a director of photography.

With a passion for images, he discovered the importance of lighting and camera operation in order to tell a story. How important it is to find the best approach for each particular project, always in pair with the director.

Maurício has developed his work in many film formats, such as: commercials, fiction, documentaries, music videos and corporate videos.

His commercial credits includes renowned brands like Ford, IntelBras, Boticário, Land Rover, Microsoft, Lusiaves, Absolut and Stella Artois.

Among his latest fiction projects we can highlight the feature film nominated in the Gramado Film Festival 2020 "Why Won't You Cry" by Cibele Amaral and "The Last Animal" directed by Leonel Vieira.
