Jump Cut is an independent film production company. Its goal is to produce Arthouse films that are experimental in theme, style and type.
Jump Cut was founded in Trento in May 2011 from the experience gained in producing the medium-length film “Dafni e Cloe”. The founder, Luigi Pepe, is a graduate of ZeLIG, the school for documentaries, television and new media based in Bolzano.
His attention to the new media led him to focus on producing content that is well suited to the changes undergone by the distribution market in the digital age, combining technological and artistic innovation and on-going relationships with the territory and the local resources.

I am a member of Jump Cut since its foundation in 2011. After graduating in Literature I decided to devote myself entirely to cinema and with Jump Cut I produced and made all my films.

Chiara Nicoletti
Producer
After graduating in Communication in Bologna, I continued my studies specialising in the field of film production, experiencing it in all its aspects: from set organisation (feature films and documentaries) to the economic management of individual projects (from development to closure) and of companies in the sector. I am a member of Jump Cut since 2021.

Simone Cargnoni
Photographer
I was born in Brescia in 1984. After high school, I left my native valley, Val Sabbia, to move to Trento to study Sociology. Around the same time I started to develop an interest for photography and video. Afterwards I worked with several Italian indie-rock bands, such as Verdena and Marlene Kuntz. For Marlene Kuntz, I curated the cover of album “Nella tua luce” and I co-directed the videoclip “Solstizio”. In 2014, 100 of my portraits were exhibited at Berlin’s International Literature Festival.

Luigi Pepe
Post production manager
I was born in Calabria in 1982. After graduating in Sociology, I attended ZeLIG, the school for documentary, television and new media in Bolzano, Italy, where I specialized in editing and post-production. At ZeLIG I edited three movies that were admitted to several international film festivals (Tampere, Jihlava, Minneapolis, Zagrebdox to name a few.) In 2010 I was selected for Berlinale Talent Campus. In 2011 I founded Jump Cut. I produced “Piccola Patria”, the first fiction movie of director Alessandro Rossetto. Now I do post-production.
