Duarte Pedroso de Lima was born in Lisbon in 1994. In 2015 he received his bachelor degree on Editing at ESTC – Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema. Immediately he started working on Post-Production, his role varied from a supervisor of 4K remasters of Pedro Costa’s films, editor on a short-film for Miguel Gonçalves Mendes, O Paraíso São os Outros, and collaborating with performance artists Sara Vaz and Diana Policarpo for their shows. It was during this trajectory that his focus shifted to be a part of a filming crew as an Assistant Director. From 2018 onwards he has exclusively worked for advertisements and Cinema – collaborating with Welket Bungué on Upheavel (Berlinale 2021) and his upcoming project Prima Ku Lebsi, as well with Pedro Cabeleira on Damned Summer (Locarno Film Festival 2015). His professional journey has made him very aware of the technicality aspects of shooting as well as managing sets and people, giving him more control on his smaller freelance projects where often he is a “one-man-show”. Antenna is his first project after his graduation, which follows the universe he constructed in his only short-film, Gargoyle.
