ROBERTO ANDRE` DE MORAES

Peru - 1974

This Brazilian American contemporary Filmmaker, avant-garde director, and inspirational script writer; was born in a small village just outside Lima, Peru. His dedication to the arts began in 1980 when he was given his first 35mm camera. Although some may say he was too young to understand the unmistakable irony within the scenes he composed, others believed he was born with this natural photographic instinct.

Through the following years, Roberto acquired a single name to emphasize his influence on the photographic and film industry. The name 'Ho', which comes from the American - Brazilian root from the word hotography, is best defined as filmatic perfection.

In 1993, Roberto chose to attend Virginia Polytechnic Institution and State University, because of the sheer decrepidation of the film department. As an understudy to Jerry Scheeler, Ho was able to build upon a production company which is now called "ground 0".

In 1998, Roberto completed his accredited scholarship in Film and TV. Over the following 4 years Ho began his work as a bartender to enhance his understanding of interpersonal continuity. Through this evaluation, Ho has come to near completion of his first nationally released film production.
