Letter to Taika Waititi

Open letter from Giacomo Fontemaggi to Taika Waititi
“Interview ”

29 April 2021,

Dear Taika,
I am an animation student and aspiring filmmaker at the Estienne school of Paris.
I have been a huge fan of your work since I first discovered "What we do in the shadows", and have been following your work, which has had a massive influence on my work and my way to look at movies.
I have a YouTube channel on which I post animation content, but I recently started a series as part of a school project, called "Portraits", in which I interview people from different artistic backgrounds (artists, animators, filmmakers, comedians, ...).
It would be a great honor if you accepted to do an interview with me as part of this series.

Here is the link for the playlist of the already existing interviews :

I am at your disposition for more informations that you could find useful.
Sincerely yours,
Giacomo Fontemaggi
