Lorenzo Ferrarini is a filmmaker, photographer and sound recordist
based at the University of Manchester, where he teaches Ethnographic
Documentary at the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology. Before
moving to Britain he studied anthropology and ethnomusicology in Italy,
where he collaborates with the LEAV - Ethnomusicology and Visual
Anthropology Laboratory at the University of Milan. He completed two
extensive researches on Egyptian migrants in Italy (2007-2008) and
donso hunters in Western Burkina Faso (2011-2012). In both cases he
used radically participatory methods, sharing everyday practical
activities and the conception of his media projects. His previous
documentaries include the experimental short "A Migrant's Tale" (2008)
and the feature "The Sambla Baan" (upcoming).
