Angelo Meloni
Co-Founder & Creative Director
Born in Alghero, on the coast of Sardinia, Angelo Meloni is an Italian director and photographer based in Dubai since 2021. His work is defined by a refined, light-driven visual language and a Mediterranean sensibility, telling the stories of places, people and journeys through images that feel both cinematic and authentic.
Over the years he has directed and photographed productions for brands such as Bvlgari Resort Dubai, Qatar Airways, Comlux, Visit Dubai, Accor and flydubai, shot on location around the world. With Andrea Folino he co-founded ISOLA STUDIOS, bringing a Mediterranean eye to hospitality, travel and aviation brands. Every ISOLA production is led personally by its founders, from the first conversation to the final cut.

Common questions.
Do you travel for productions?
Yes. ISOLA STUDIOS is based in Dubai and works internationally, on location wherever the brand needs to be filmed or photographed.
What's included in a production?
Creative direction, filming and/or photography, and post-production, all planned and delivered by the same team, end to end.
Can you work on photography only, without video?
Yes. Creative direction, film production and photography are offered as separate services and can be booked independently.
Do you manage social media accounts?
No. ISOLA STUDIOS produces the content (ideation, filming, photography and edit) but does not manage or post to client social accounts.
How much does a production cost?
There is no fixed price list: every project is different. Share a short brief (what you need, where and when) and Angelo prepares a tailored proposal once the scope is clear.
