Fernando has just participated voluntarily in a social spot for a large campaign against child prostitution in Romania. The spot was conceived by Saatchi & Saatchi and produced by Saga Film for United Way. It will start to be screened this month in major cinemas throughout Romania.

Anna Maria Cianciulli about Fernando

"I am a teacher of acting at the New York Film Academy, where I emphasize the Sanford Meisner Approach and Scene Study.
I am writing on behalf of Fernando, who has been my student at the Budapest Campus of the NY Film Academy, in August of 2007.
Fernando is very serious and very committed to his learning, and he has a great passion for acting. His classroom approach has been professional, his attitude has been positive and he has shared generously in the work with his fellow classmates.
It has been a very good experience working with him. I appreciate the honesty and the life I’ve seen him bring to the work, and I like his sense of humor. These are qualities that any director and teacher will appreciate.
I hope he will continue growing in his craft, and his potential will find more nourishment through studying and working.
I highly recommend giving him the opportunity to continue shaping his skills as an actor."

Ben Maraniss about Fernando

"I am a directing teacher at the New York Film Academy, specializing in directing actors.
Fernando was my student at the New York Film Academy – Budapest during the summer of 2007 and I am writing on his behalf.
Of all of the actors that I have worked with since I began teaching Fernando has shown the most discipline, commitment and talent. These qualities are evident in every performance he gives and in the attitude he brings to the classroom. Beyond this, he is an amazingly versatile performer who adds depth and humor to every genre in which he works.
Fernando is gifted. He should be given every opportunity to pursue his craft and will make a fine addition to any program or production he enters."
