Campano worked as FX designer for Doghead by Santi Amodeo; as editor and screenwriter for the series by Alberto Rodríguez and Rafael Cobos, The Plague, since 2012; and as director of music videos and audiovisual content for museums and exhibitions, as well as spots for festivals such as Monkey Week, also Monkey Week TV in 2020, and the SEFF. In 2021, the director joined the production company La Zanfoña Producciones and participated in the project of Gonzalo García Pelayo and Gervasio Iglesias: “El año de las 10+1 películas” (The year of the 10+1 films). After editing Ainur (2021), he directed his second film Arde!, shot in Argentina and premiered at Sitges. As a matter of interest, the director is also the frontman of the rock band Sweethearts From America.
