My scenographic approach is authorial.
I try to restore dignity and functionality to an often mortified profession.
Established the cut with the director, I develop ideas that make the work original and expressive. Its function of support and sublimation of the story depends on the delicate balance of the scenography between real and surreal. I treat the locations as studios, with major adaptations, but always within the budget.
I was lucky enough to collaborate with authors and directors who gave me ample freedom of action even in risky situations.

Qualunquemente
(Italy)
Cetto is happy to settle back into his Italian home (designed in tasteless post-baroque opulence by p.d. Marco Belluzzi)
Belluzzi’s sets and Roberto Chiocchi’s eye-popping costumes, the latter incrementally overwhelming the color palette with purple and gold, are some of the pic’s most enjoyably comical elements

This film is a riot of ideas and colors, it is a grotesque representation of the historical period that our country is experiencing ... The multi-layered nature of Tutto Tutto Niente Niente opens the doors to amazement in front of the costumes by Roberto Chiocchi and the scenographies of Marco Belluzzi
by SIMONA SANTONI
... just as over the top are the scenographies curated by Marco Belluzzi: a winning touch to give an effect of abnormality. The Palaces of Politics thus appear to be rarefied marble structures (the set is the EUR neighborhood in Rome), the parliament is a football fanatic pit ...
by ENRICO GATTI
... much of the credit goes 'undoubtedly' to the scenographies of Marco Belluzzi; incredible, excessive, kitschy, and very expressive, the settings, the strength of this film, ignore every rule of good taste, pushing themselves to the limit of the bearable, to create a very rich and surreal setting that has been absent for too long in our cinema. Their visionary strength even recalls some films of the seventies, made only less proletarian and more baroque (thanks above all to the splendid photography).
