01 / The work

Recent premieres.

Companies with a history and a team behind it. Cement blocks in Montese in 1969 and wooden houses today, timber roofs in Polesine since 1979, specialty resins near Padua since 1962, eggs near Vicenza since 1961, turf machines and irrigation in Due Carrare since 1968, Unreal Engine training from Milan to Bari and compressed air near Cremona. Press play with the sound on.

Del blocco ci è rimasto il nome. Il cuore, adesso, è di legno.

A film for Vibrobloc’s stand at Klimahouse 2027 in Bolzano. It starts in Montese in 1969, when a very young Romano Scaglioni began making the cement blocks that gave the company its name. Today there are two production lines totalling 200 metres, 500 houses, 3 million square metres of roofs and the 600-year-old trusses of San Petronio in Bologna, restored by their crews. Narrated in Italian, with Romano Scaglioni’s own voice, captioned for a noisy hall.

Un tetto in legno è per sempre.

A film for Zanin, who have built timber roofs and structures in Badia Polesine since 1979. It opens on their own footage of a sixteen-tonne roof lifted onto a house by crane, then goes to the drawing desk, the workshop, the team and everything they build, narrated in Italian.

Look closer.

A one-minute film for a specialty resin maker near Padua, in business since 1962. It opens in macro on the inks, paints and adhesives their resins end up in, then goes to the plant, the lab, their three product families and their stands at this year's trade fairs.

Guardatelo controluce. Dentro, c’è una famiglia.

A film for Alma, the Schiesaro family’s egg farm in San Tomio di Malo, near Vicenza, since 1961. It opens on an egg held up to the light and keeps the egg as its frame through sixty-five years of mornings, the packing line, the code stamped on every shell and the kitchens their eggs end up in, narrated in Italian.

E quando arrivate voi, c’è già un prato verde.

A film for PratoVerde’s stand at EIMA 2026. Since 1968 they have brought Toro irrigation and the best turf machines to Italy from Due Carrare, near Padua. It opens at dawn, before anyone is on the grass, and goes through gardens, parks, squares, stadiums and golf clubs to the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome, where the owner, Gian Domenico Dorigo, speaks in his own voice. Narrated in Italian, captioned for a noisy hall.

L’aria che si vede è la loro. Quella che non si vede, la portiamo noi.

A film for Duebi’s stand at the Fiere Zootecniche Internazionali di Cremona 2026. It opens in a barn at dawn in winter, where you can see the cows’ breath, and turns to the air nobody sees, the compressed air that opens gates, closes presses and moves valves. From Spino d’Adda, near Cremona, Duebi has supplied industry since the 1990s, and with ACS, its compressed-air division, it designs the systems, installs the compressors and looks after them. Narrated in Italian, captioned for a noisy hall.

02 / Why now

The keys are changing hands.

Most Italian companies belong to a family, and many will change generation in the next few years. The story should pass on too, to the people taking over, the staff, the customers and the town.

85%

Of Italian companies are family businesses

03 / Why Motore

Motore! is what an Italian director calls to roll camera. It is also Italian for engine, and in a family company the engine is the people who started it and the people who keep it going. We make films about them, from the archive you already have and the voices of the people who were there, in days rather than months.

5days

04 / What we make

For the days that count.

Most of our films start with an anniversary or a handover. Fairs, company events, technical explainers and the films you show customers come right after.

    06 / Final notes

    The last round of notes.

    What clients said once the film was locked.

    I have commissioned plenty of event videos and I know the usual rhythm: weeks of calls, then a cut that looks like everyone else's. Motore sent a first cut the day after the brief. We gave notes over breakfast and watched the new version before lunch, round after round, until every frame felt like SumUp.

    Resins are hard to film and even harder to explain. Motore turned six decades of chemistry into one minute of film, and it does what our brochure never managed. It is now the first thing a new customer sees.

    MOTORE · 15A
    Marco Vallese
    CEO, Resine Italiane
    Without a single meeting, Motore Studio made a film about our presence at the Genoa International Boat Show, with a style and a pace we liked straight away. Every change we asked for came back fixed within a few days, right down to the logo and the captions on our partners' projects. They are fast and attentive to detail, and I would recommend them to anyone who needs a video.

    08 / Questions

    Asked on set.

    Can it stay a surprise?

    Yes. Many anniversary films are a surprise for the founder or the family. We work only with whoever briefs us, share cuts through private links and never show a film anywhere before you do. We sign an NDA if you need one.

    All we have is a box of old photos. Is that enough?

    Usually, yes. Old photos, even a phone picture of each one, a VHS tape, the first catalogue, a letter, a recording of the founder. We clean it all up and build the film around it. Send what you have and we will tell you straight away what we can make of it.

    Can the founder tell it in their own voice?

    Yes, and it is the part people remember. An interview on a video call, an old tape or a voice note is enough. We clean up the sound and set it to the photos and footage of the time.

    Will it work at a fair, with the sound off?

    Yes. The fair version carries its subtitles in the picture, so the stand screen tells the story in a noisy hall, and a loop version runs all day without a visible start or end. The full film with sound is for the meeting table.

    Do you use AI?

    Yes, openly. We use the newest tools to restore old photos and recordings, to recreate moments nobody filmed and for the narration and music, alongside design and edit we do by hand. People direct and finish every frame, and you see and approve every scene before the film is locked. We pick tools whose terms allow commercial use, and we ask before any of your private material goes near one.

    Who owns the finished film?

    You do. On final payment you get the full rights to use the film anywhere, for as long as you like. Music is original or properly licensed, so nothing gets taken down later.

    Do you come and film us?

    Rarely needed. We build the film from your archive, your own footage, photos of today and generated imagery. When a scene truly needs a camera and a crew, in the workshop or at the party, we say so up front and quote it separately.

    How fast can you really go?

    A first cut in five working days as standard, or in 48 hours with Express. Tell us the date of the party or the fair and we plan back from it; most films wrap within two weeks of the brief.

    What if we do not like the first cut?

    You approve the script and the look before anything is animated, so the first cut rarely surprises anyone. Two rounds of notes are included, and further rounds are available if you need them.

    Which languages can you do?

    Italian, English and the languages of your customers abroad, in voice, captions and on-screen text. Italian and English are checked by native speakers in the studio; for other languages we ask a native speaker on your side to sign off.

    Where are you based?

    Between Italy and London. We work with companies anywhere, by email and a shared link, and we are happy to come to the premiere.
