Set Life – Video Industry Networking
Questo meetup nasce con un obiettivo semplice ma potente: conoscersi e creare connessioni reali tra persone che lavorano o vogliono lavorare nel mondo del video, soprattutto nel contesto dei set.
L’idea è creare uno spazio informale dove:
1. incontrare altri professionisti e aspiranti
professionisti del settore video e cinema
2. Scoprire che tipo di progetti fanno gli altri
3. condividere competenze, esperienze e idee
4. costruire relazioni che possano trasformarsi in collaborazioni creative, lavori o progetti personali
Che tu sia:
• direttore della fotografia
• regista
• montatore
• fonico
• producer
• scenografo
• runner
• studente
• o semplicemente qualcuno che vuole entrare nel mondo dei set
sei nel posto giusto.
L’obiettivo è far nascere connessioni concrete.
Non è una masterclass, non è una presentazione formale,
è un momento di networking autentico
Se lavori già nel settore o vuoi entrarci, questo evento è per te.
Passeggiata ai Giardini della Guastalla - Walk in Guastalla Gardens

Ciao a tutti, questa volta vi propongo una passeggiata ai Giardini della Guastalla. I Giardini hanno una superficie di 12.000m2 e si affacciano su via Francesco Sforza, di fronte all'Università Statale di Milano.
Si tratta di uno dei parchi meno estesi di Milano, ma è anche una delle aree verdi più antiche e più belle della città.
La passeggiata continuerà in un altro parco vicino..
Dopo la passeggiata, per chi vuole, possiamo bere qualcosa o fare aperitivo.
Ci troveremo all'uscita della metro gialla Crocetta M3.
Programma
Ore 15.30-15.40: Raduno dei partecipanti

Hi all, this time I propose a walk in Guastalla Gardens. They have an area of 12,000sm and are located along Francesco Sforza Street, opposite the University of Milan. It is one of the least extensive parks in Milan, but it is also one of the oldest and most beautiful green areas in the city.
The walk will continue in another park..
After the walk, if you want, we can have a drink or happy hour.
We will meet at the exit of Crocetta M3 Station of the yellow subway.
Program
3.30-3.40pm: Meeting

See you!
OSTELLO BELLO OLYMPIC GAMES
**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.**
**That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.**
While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics.
This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes.
**The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**.
## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards
Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines:
### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle
A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck.
* **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole.
* **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal.
### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge
We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor."
* **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves.
* **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle.
### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide
The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real.
* **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release.
* **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments.
* **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus.
### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game
The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots.
**AND REPEAT.**

## What we’re about
Buongiorno a tutti. Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille.

Un mare di pirati - Spettacolo gratuito di teatro-ragazzi
#### All’arrembaggio!
Di solito nell’armadio di Alice si nascondono l’Uomo Nero, il Mostro Peloso, il Lupo Lupone… Tutt’altra faccenda quando esce dall’armadio un’onda d’acqua salata, seguita dal braccio robusto e tatuato di un terribile… pirata! Che cosa cerca proprio nella sua camera questo brutto ceffo? Per quale motivo, anziché starsene sulla plancia del suo galeone, è finito sul materasso del suo letto? E soprattutto perché blatera di riacciuffare la sua “ciurma barbina”? Il braccio del terribile bucaniere ti ha già acciuffato, portandoti con sé… dentro l’armadio della fantasia oppure è solo un sogno!
#### Si salpa per l’Isola del tesoro!
Uno spettacolo in cui il giovane pubblico diventa parte della messa in scena, proprio come gli amici di Peter Pan sull’Isola che non c’è, di Sandokan e della sua Mompracem. Un’avventura nell’affascinante e avventuroso mondo dei pirati: un’isola misteriosa, un tesoro da scoprire, un sortilegio da sconfiggere e gli immancabili calzini a strisce puzzolenti e “piratosi”.
**Spettacolo di e con:** Alessandro Tacconi, Maria Carolina Nardino
**Produzione:** Acetico Glaciale
**Durata:** 50 minuti
**Età consigliata:** 4-10 anni

Fun Friday: EPiC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT at Lennox Phoenix Theater!
Join us for something different as we get together to see EPIC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT! While researching his 2022 film, director Bas Luhrmann came across and compiled rare and previously unseen interviews and videos of Elvis in concert to create “one of the most exciting concert films you’ve ever seen!” Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: Part documentary, part concert film, the latest from director Bas Luhrmann is a follow-up to his 2022 film starring Austin Butler. While researching the film, he came across 68 boxes of previously unseen interviews, concert performances and outtakes from previous films. A combination of offstage and onstage Elvis, comes a film that “befits the magnitude of Elvis as a performer but also offers deeper revelations of his humanity and inner life." It is written/directed by Baz Luhrmann (ELVIS, MOULIN ROUGE, THE GREAT GATSBY) and stars the legendary Elvis Presley!
TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmqWusmzp0k
BUZZ AND ACCLAIM: The film screened at the 2025 Toronto Film Festival where it was the runner up in the category People’s Choice Award for Documentaries. Next Best Picture says, “Certain to energize longtime fans and generate new ones for generations to come, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is a masterwork of montage.” And according to the NY Post, whether you have a room in the house devoted to Elvis or not, this truly “Epic” concert film is an energizing experience!”
PLAN: We’ll plan for a pre-show bite at nearby BRAVO around 5 or 5:30pm followed by a 7pm-ish showing on one of their larger screens. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised. Please list your seat number in the Comments below. Exact showtime and meeting details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer.
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Starring Vittorio Gassman and Jean-Louis Trintignant, the film shows that for young men in love the rules of the road are only suggestions. And the rules for love? Hey, this is an Italian picture! Oh to be young and filled with joie de vivre or la dolce vita.
A french/italian fun filled movie with a surprising twist at the end.
