Paris & London based.

EU, UK and USA passport holder.

Currently based between Paris and London, Erica was born in California and grew up in Italy in an environment where art drives all aspects of culture.

As a music lover and dancer herself, she ingeniously utilises music and rhythm not only to choreograph and direct the actors on set but also to facilitate the development of the characters, even if music might not ultimately be included in the final film.

Erica graduated from Central Saint Martins in London with a BA in Performance: Design & Practice and trained at HomeStudio with acting coach Laurence Mitchell. This training significantly shaped her approach to directing actors, influencing how she brings performances to life and deepening her focus on emotional range and character development.

"Il Perché" [Why], won multiple awards worldwide, including Best Experimental Short and Best Woman Short at the Indie Film Fest, Best Experimental Short at FICOCC and was selected for the San Francisco Frozen Film Festival and Female Eye Film Festival.

As a cinematographer, she utilises the camera as a dance partner, elegantly traversing through space in a mesmerising dance alongside the actors.

Her background is in fashion, where she worked as a creative director. She was the creator and editor of ESC Magazine, an arts and fashion magazine which focused on creating atmospheres through colour palettes to trigger sensorial reactions.

Erica is working freelance, while writing her first feature film and developing sustainable workwear for women in film.
