Christian Yari Schembri He is a French Italian AITR Camera operator based in Rome. He is graduated in philosophy at the French School "Lycée Chateaubriand " and then graduated after high school at the Italian film school "cine TV Roberto Rossellini" in "camera operator".

He speaks 2 mother tongues (france and Italian), and he knows one basic language (Spanish) and one acquired tongue (english) cause he moved in Toronto Canada after he has done a master course in "photographic languages" at the "Mifav-torvergata" Rome university. His mother was Mirella Mereu a famous actress of photo-romances. This kind of "popular paper soap opera" is like the fiction or series are for us for national tv stations or popular web series in modern times.

In his original career has never stopped even if it could seems slowly because he decided:

-to be close to his family and to write images or histories inspired by the immigration feelings and tales,

-to study, getting several European professional diplomas or continuing to learn from "the street" and obviously from many "Italians film ancient masters" with this sense of respect acquired in the Italian Artisanal way of working.

-to be updated with film equipment before and after with electronic cameras. At the turn of the new millennium he has temporarily chosen to get trained in camera operation, out of the film industry, using on purpose the first electronic cameras for many documentaries, reportage or music TV shows, also to have opportunities to use Steadicam or making scuba shooting,

-to be always in images communications in different areas learning all theirs representations. For example mainly using a single shot or a frame photography to express a concept, using movie's languages (film or electronic camera) to tell a story, or using "videography" (videomusic, experimental video or advertising) to express basically the feelings and finally using a documentary or reportage to describe the reality.

He had never stopped: -despite the Italian film crisis in a middle the nineties, -despite be part of a modest family and not to be "pure Italian", -despite the huge differences between the education in the different countries of Europe at the end of century and before the single European currency -despite the transition between the analogue and digital age that lead to confusion the workers roles, economic aspects and the use of internet for distribution owned by private foreign corporations...

During covid he starting to produce and be director of various documentaries and video clip using and hashtag YmaginDna always search new "family" or "team" an be just a camera operator to film director, producer or really movie cinematographer.

Actually he is getting training into drone shooting.

Nice to see you soon Cheers
