Batman, Spiderman, Adam Kadmon, they all have a secret identity.
And I don't care, below I'll tell you who's hiding behind Wally The Walrus.
My name is Filippo Ghiglione and I have always been passionate about stories, in particular about getting to the heart of stories, understanding how they work, the narrative twists,
the intrinsic content.
In my life and on my journey, I've never been too still, leaping and moving from one place to another, until I crossed paths with a group of people who one evening, in a pub in Milan with a walrus-like name, made me realize that in the future I would be saying the name "The Walrus" very often.
In my career, I've had the opportunity to work with some wonderful and important people with whom I've collaborated and continue to collaborate, in various fields and at various levels: script analyst, story editor, scout, reader, and press office.
But always and in any case halfway between the audiovisual world and that of publishing.
On this winding and ever-changing journey, I was fortunate enough to encounter a company that immediately convinced me to come on board.
This is Story Editors Italia APS , the first association dedicated to development and editorial professionals in the Italian audiovisual industry.
In my role as National Secretary and Head of Events & PR , I work with the Board of Directors to organize workshops, webinars, masterclasses, and networking events to create a new generation of more informed creative productions and make existing ones more innovative and accessible.
Throughout my educational journey, comprised of university and master's degrees interspersed with numerous courses, workshops, and various in-depth studies, I have always sought to bring together the two worlds, almost like a bridge that could connect them in a constructive and lasting way.
The path I've taken has allowed me to encounter incredible realities with which I've been able to collaborate on multiple levels, meeting valuable people and creating beautiful and lasting things, always embracing a variety of fields and situations.

Finally, a musical component was added to my wanderings, with the creation of two projects (one English and one Italian) and many, many songs.
A parallel path I've been pursuing for a long time, which has allowed me to record songs and shoot videos and sessions all over the place, release several EPs, play around Italy on every stage and even compose the soundtrack for a documentary.
