Lucia Bulgheroni is an Italian animation director. While studying filmmaking at the Instituto Europe di Design in Milan Lucia first began exploring stop motion animation and discovered her love for and the potential of the medium. After working in commercials, regularly blending live action and stop motion techniques, Lucia completed an MA in Directing Animation at the National Film & Television School in London. Her main interest lies in exploring issues surrounding philosophy, psychology and her own subconscious — abstract themes perfectly suited to be visualised through the medium of animation.
