Edoardo Guarnieri
Technical Director
Carries visual quality from the concept to the physical immersive surface.
Edoardo Guarnieri is a 3D Generalist and 3D Director with more than five years of experience across motion design, architectural visualisation, look development and real-time workflows. At the usual neXt he oversees technical feasibility, visual production, experimentation and the transition from digital model to installation.
Problem, transformation, contribution
Why this experience matters to the usual neXt projects
Domes, video mapping and immersive environments change how scale, perspective, light and movement are perceived. Edoardo connects creative direction, modelling, rendering, procedural tools and technical verification to carry the visual intent into real geometry.
Form follows the real space
Architectural visualisation supports evaluating proportions, materials, viewpoints and the relationship between content and surface before final production.
Workflows designed for immersion
3ds Max, Cinema 4D, Houdini, Unreal Engine and leading render engines are combined according to the required result, geometry and delivery schedule.
Research applied to production
Experience in R&D and procedural systems enables experimentation while preserving file quality, process repeatability and final delivery.
Professional background
A career across motion, architecture and images for public space
Edoardo’s work includes short films, out-of-home campaigns, product design, digital art and virtual tours. Each context requires a creative direction to be translated into technically controlled images.

From expertise to delivery
Expertise that directly supports the offer
Technical direction connects concept, assets, geometry, rendering and the conditions of the destination surface. This reduces the gap between a convincing studio image and a legible experience in the real space.

Project responsibilities
Where he contributes in the project workflow
Edoardo oversees the transition from vision to production and verifies that content, structure and installation retain the same objective.
-
01
Previsualisation
Geometry, viewpoints, light, materials and movement are assessed before full production.
-
02
Production
Pipeline, assets, rendering and review stages are defined for the final medium.
-
03
Technical verification
Content is checked against the structure, projection system and actual installation conditions.
Education and sources
Education and professional evidence
Training in media design was extended through specialist programmes in VFX, video mapping and architectural visualisation, then applied in 3D studios and public exhibition contexts.
