Andrea Sparacino aka Sparo was born in 1980 in Alessandria, Italy.
He's the son of two teachers.
As a teenager he attempts to play guitar in a punk rock band.
He graduated from DAMS cinema at the Università degli Studi di Torino.
He soon left the guitar for a camcorder.
He cut his teeth working as camera operator and editor for many televisions.
But he wanted to go to the cinema to watch his name scrolling down at the end of a movie so he trained as camera prep and started from the bottom of the camera department on some feature films.
As videomaker he shot, edited and directed several music videos, documentaries and promos.
In 2006 a music video he directed was nominated at Premio Videoclip Italiano.
He lives in Milan and he makes a living working for a shopping tv.
He still goes after his passion building his reel on low budget film projects.
