"Germano is an exceptional cinematographer and a passionate filmmaker. Having hired him in 2010 to photograph my short film, "Claws", I could not have found a better collaborator and voice of wisdom. Germano's artistic sensibility and thoughtful nature compliment his technical expertise perfectly, making him a pleasure to work with on even the most challenging shoot. With years of experience behind the camera, Germano's sharp eye for detail and quality, at every stage of production, put him in a rare category of film professionals. I plan on making the feature-length version of "Claws" with Germano behind the camera."
