Welcome to Whitesfilm Wedding Videography
Whitesfilm is the wedding film studio of Claudio Sichel, based at Selvazzano Dentro outside Padua, about half an hour from Venice, and filming across Italy, France, Greece and further afield. He and Silvia work in a reportage style, following the day as it happens with light equipment and editing it into short, cinematic films.
Whitesfilm is the studio of Claudio Sichel, a videographer born and raised in Padua. He studied Arts, Music and Performing Arts (DAMS) at the University of Bologna, completed a Master’s at the Bologna Film Academy and founded Whitesfilm in 2014, after years making music videos, company films and documentaries, some broadcast on Sky, Rai and Mediaset. He has won awards at international festivals as a director of animated music videos.
We don’t work on a set with actors, but with real people and real emotions, which I strive to portray in the most sincere, elegant, and intimate way possible.Claudio Sichel, founder and lead videographer (whitesfilm.com/about)
Whitesfilm Wedding Videography
He films weddings with Silvia, his partner in work and life, who shoots alongside him and runs production. The two describe themselves as a couple filming couples, from small elopements to large luxury weddings. For bigger days, camera operators Alberto and Ciprian join them, and a team of editors, Paola, Thomas, Chiara and Alessio, keeps delivery moving through the high season. Behind them are camera operators Alberto and Ciprian and an editing team of Paola, Thomas, Chiara and Alessio.
The approach is reportage. Claudio does not pose couples or stage moments; he works with essential equipment rather than a large crew, heavy lights or a bulky stabiliser, and tries to move among the guests without being noticed.
