Guillaume Campanacci was born and raised in the picturesque city of Cannes, France, where he developed a strong foundation for his future endeavors. Following the completion of his Masters in Industrial and Mechanical engineering from the esteemed "Arts et Metiers" school in Aix en Provence and Paris, Guillaume embarked on a journey around the world as a model, visiting numerous countries including Athens, Paris, Singapore, Hong Kong, Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Miami, and New York.
Despite his success as a model, Guillaume found that it was not fulfilling his true passions and aspirations. As a self-proclaimed cinema lover, he drew inspiration from a wide range of classic films and decided to devote his time to his true calling: writing, directing, and acting. Guillaume began honing his craft by studying the Meisner technique at the renowned William Esper Studio in New York, and later with the esteemed Anthony Abeson.
Guillaume's hard work and dedication soon paid off as he found himself working under the direction of Academy Award-winning director Emmanuel "Chivo" Lubezki and David Fincher, acting alongside household names such as Eva Longoria and Jane Fonda, and collaborating with the David Lynch Foundation on multiple occasions. In fact, David Lynch himself praised Guillaume, stating, "Guillaume, you are a great actor."
After gaining experience in directing music videos and short films, as well as writing several spec scripts, one of which was awarded by Francis Ford Coppola, Guillaume decided to take on his most ambitious project yet: writing, directing, producing, and acting in his first feature film, Devils in Disguise. This cinematic masterpiece was inspired by Guillaume's Renaissance man spirit and was met with critical acclaim, including its world premiere at the iconic Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Journalists and critics drew comparisons between Guillaume and some of the most influential filmmakers in history, including Stanley Kubrick, David Lynch, and Jean-Luc Godard.
