Peter Rocca

While studying at NYU, Peter competed on the diving team. At that time, he was approached to join the circus as an acrobat. Peter accepted the offer, running off to work in the circus during school breaks, mostly on the flying trapeze. A lover of film, but with no desire to be an actor, Peter eventually broke into the film business as a stuntman. Seeking greater artistic fulfillment, he is now focusing his energy and talent on pursuing a career as a screenwriter and director.Peter's directorial debut, the short film Widowmaker, which he co-wrote with Chel Hamilton, was the winner of the 2005 Melbourne Independent Filmmakers Festival Crystal Apple "Filmmakers' Choice" Award.Lately, Peter has been directing music videos, having just completed European House star Lulu's cover of Last Night a DJ Saved My Life and newcomer Papa Joe's Now.
