In between drinking and sunbathing,
we work indeed on the dopest projects.
Taking care of any aspect of the workflow,
from the very first sketches to the release party.
Treatment and production, 3D, VFX and motion graphics are some of our most famous specialities, besides being good-looking great entertainers.
And for those nostalgic for the good old self-distancing, we also develop realistic 3D characters!
So you can quit attending boring work meetings and dangerous family reunions.

Andrea Folino
The mastermind behind REEF. Andrea is our founder, executive producer, creative lead and director. To put it simply, he’s a jack-of-all-trades filmmaker with a strong cinematic style. He's been shaping the video identity of Italian rapper Salmo and the Machete Crew since he was just 14, working with the top Italian rappers and international pop stars. Despite his youth, he's accomplished a lot, and he's incredibly talented and cute (or at least that's what he asked us to write).

Alessandro Fele
Our VFX genius. Alessandro boasts a decade of experience with a super-rich portfolio including films, TV series, and countless music videos. Alongside REEF, he worked on our first full CGI music video, “Aldo Ritmo” by Salmo, and he’s currently diving deep into conjuring digital humans: he created the official 3D avatars for Salmo (FLOP Tour) and thasup, and he has plenty more in the pipeline. He’s basically the god of our digital doppelgängers, so if you desire to appear gorgeous in the multiverse you better be on his good side.

Pietro Daood
The OG REEF veteran since day one. Pietro started as the partner-in-crime and video editor for Andrea Folino's music videos, but quickly expanded his artistic horizons into the world of 3D, becoming our go-to artist for his unique vision and taste.

Mike Manca
Mike is our go-to 2D artist, but he's also our resident 3D animator – because why settle for just two dimensions when you can have three? He has an impressive background in motion graphics and 2D animation from his experiences in Turin, Milan, and Australia. He joined the REEF team in 2021, and has been a cornerstone of the studio since then.

Andrea Bacciu
Andrea has a strong classical studies and Fine Arts background, and he’s also a living encyclopedia when it comes to videogames and 3D gaming technologies. He brought both the fanciness and the fun stuff to the studio, being now all about that metaverse life and creating mind-blowing apps for VR headsets. He’s a very cool and passionate nerd with tons of knowledge.

ANDREA FERRARELLO
All Andrea does in his life revolves around films. He directs them, he watches them, he talks about them, he… VFXs them, as part of our visual-effects dream team with his colleague and mentor Alessandro Fele. Guess what did he study? Filmmaking, at Bologna’s Accademia Nazionale del Cinema. Just put him in front of a movie featuring dinosaurs, aliens, giant monkeys, or bloodcurdling monsters, and he will be more than happy.

Andrea Brigaglia
From Olbia to Milan and back, Andrea is our audio guy, which means that if it weren’t for him we would make mute videos. He takes care of all things sound design, mixing, mastering, and recordings, making him the core of REEF Recording, our audio strand. He's also a super-skilled music producer with a profound love for videogames and cinema.

FRANCESCO LIORI
Do you see the marvellous drawings on this page? They were created by the blessed Sardinian hands of FR3NK (aka Francesco Liori), our very own top-tier superhero. FR3NK is one of Italy's top illustrators: he founded the brand “Doomsday” and has been shaping the artistic identity of the Machete crew since 2010 (including Salmo's custom drip, live tour visuals, and album artworks), as well as making crucial contributions to some of our most pivotal projects. With a Fine Arts background in scenography, you can give him just about anything these days: a piece of paper, a wall, a jacket, your skin, a webpage, a wheelchair. Rest assured, he will pimp it with his art and a couple of monsters.

Alice Fiorenza
Alice is our Senior Producer, Project Manager, and Professional Globetrotter! Before taking root at REEF Studios, she traveled all around the world, living in New Zealand, Australia and the USA. She later made her way to Rome to study photography and worked as an assistant and studio manager for a fashion/music photographer in Milan. She eventually came back to Sardinia and started working with REEF as a producer and project manager, forging a tremendous bond with the team. She basically keeps us all in order and on track, but in a sweeter and less frightening way than you might think.

Elena Raimondi
Elena is our sunshine-filled new entry from Olbia. She is in charge of administration and coordination and (most importantly) she brings balance, harmony, and vibrant colors to the studio. After living in Milan for several years, she returned to Olbia to take on this journey with REEF.

Sandrino Forroia
Sandrino is our editing maestro and studio manager. Hailing from Olbia, he's been part of the REEF family before it was even born. He's also a rock drummer (he shares not one, but two bands with Andrea Folino). He’s basically family.
