Timeless Personal Memories
1) Project Overview
Some stories deserve to be told and preserved over time. We offer an exclusive service for those who wish to leave an authentic and personal memory to their family, friends, colleagues, or business partners through professional videos and tailored interviews.
Whether it's an intimate message, a structured narrative, or a full documentary about one's life, we create unique content with discretion and respect.
Privacy is absolute: all materials are handled with the utmost security and are never made public.
This confidentiality is ensured by our working method: the entire production process is handled exclusively by the two of us, without involving external personnel.
Only Filippo Giani and Katie Terpsma have access to the information, visual materials, or documents entrusted to us for integration into the video. This approach guarantees the highest level of discretion at every stage of the project.
2) Who We Are
We are a team of two professionals with extensive experience in video production and editorial work, capable of telling stories with sensitivity and professionalism.
Filippo Giani – Director and video producer with over 30 years of experience creating high-quality, emotionally engaging visual content.
Born in 1975 in Lugano, Switzerland. His journey into media and technology began early, first with music, then video, and later, digital innovation. Growing up around live jazz performances, he developed a deep understanding of sound, which led to early experiences in audio engineering. By his teenage years, he was already a resident DJ in St. Moritz and soon ventured into music production, radio, and video.
In the late ‘90s, he pioneered web media in Switzerland by launching ticinonews.ch, one of the region’s first news portals, and experimented with streaming technology before it became mainstream. Over the past two decades, he has produced thousands of hours of content for private clients, international broadcasters, and digital platforms.
Today, he manages ibexmedia.ch, curating projects that span video production, photography, web development, and global TV directing. His approach is defined by versatility, discretion, and a passion for storytelling across multiple formats.
Katie Terpsma – Specialist in interviews and editorial storytelling, with a thoughtful and respectful approach to capturing the most precious testimonies.
Born in Bellingham, Washington USA in the heart of the Pacific North West. Today she resides full time in Europe. Based in Hamburg, Germany while accepting assignments all over the world.
In her continuing modelling career in the fashion and commercial business over the last 21 years she has also served on the board as USA secretary of the Obstacle Course Racing Federation. Katie has travelled to over thirty-six countries on a range of assignments meeting hosts of top interesting characters from the fashion business, the Olympics, motorsport, politics, media, publishing, the arts and business.
With her experience and refined eye in fashion and aesthetics, a multitude of contacts and a unique ability to connect with interesting people she loves working in PR, productions and collaborations helping others to shine.
