Calzatti, Alan Music Video - Film
FilmIT director/instructor Alan Calzatti was destined to be behind the camera—his grandfather was a film director and his father a director of photography. Alan's first taste of the film world was as a child on location as his father shot documentaries throughout the war-torn Middle East. After moving with his family from Russia to Jerusalem to Hollywood, by 1984 Alan was ready to begin his own career, honing his craft by directing & producing numerous industrial films and home video titles. After he was approached to direct a music video for Compton’s Most Wanted, he never looked back. With partner Jeff Clark, he formed Calzatti/Clark Productions (later Sputnik Films) and during the next 18 years completed over 250 commercials and music videos for the domestic and international markets, working with Atlantic, Sony, A&M, Jive, Hollywood Records, WEA International, & BMG/RCA, to name a few. In 1996 Alan received the MTV Viewer’s Choice—Video of the Year Award for the Backstreet Boys’ "Get Down", which launched the band into first place in Europe and changed the way “Boy Bands” were marketed. A year later, Alan repeated that success with N' Sync’s climbing to a number-one position on the European charts. Still very active in the industry, Alan most recently shot the critically acclaimed rockumentary "Heima" for the Icelandic group Sigur Ros. At FilmIT, Alan trains students in multiple areas including directing, shooting, editing and creating CGI/visual effects. www.alancalzatti.com
