Airbnb Concurso terminado

I joined this contest for 2 reasons: a) I have used Airbnb for the first time one month before the contest and I was amazed of this site, it worked great for me. And b) I found this a great way to show a part of my city, where I always have lived in, and one of my favorites in the world. Even if you don´t like football, I think you can not miss this part of the city, Madrid Rio.

We were chatting about how amazing our Arthur Avenue neighborhood was, and I remembered seeing a contest for Airbnb. We're both Italian and love to have a little slice of home, we thought we needed to share with the world how special this little Italy is. When we found out we won we jumped up and down and decided to use the money for a trip to the real Italy. We're so excited and grateful. 

This video have been filmed some weeks before the AirBnB contest was even published in Eyeka. I shot this project together with another director, Damien Rayuela, with whom I had a project to make authentic videos about Paris. Damien had a job contract in another country, and we stopped the project. But when I saw the contest on Eyeka, I found our video was exactly what the brief was asking for. This  competition had a huge amount of beautiful videos. And I am still impressed on how our video could stand out among so many others. Maybe our quality was to find an unknown place in the middle of the so-touristic Paris. Congratulations for all the other amazing video makers who competed in this great contest!
