From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pablo Salvador Naranjo-Golborne is a versatile music- and film producer, writer of film, experimental theatre, essays and articles, as well as director of film, experimental video and stage performances. He begun his development as a musician, at Concervatorio Nacional de Chile, at the age of 10, studying classical piano and percussion with maestros Mendoza and Ramon Hurtado. His experience as a musician led to a career as a music producer, before engaging in film and television, producing CDs such as TANGO, by Marcelo Nisinman and Tango Orkestret (Stunt Records) and over 400 concerts in different countries. Between the age of 19 and 25, he wrote over 100 articles and interviews with leading artists, for a number of magazines and newspapers around the world. At the age of 20 he completed his first feature film script, based on an original story.

At the age of 27 he became the youngest Managing and Artistic Director ever in Sweden, at Music in Vasternorrland, delivering a record of productions at the institution. He led more than 300 tours & performances with many of the leading artists in Sweden, Europe and South America, and directed the Scandinavian premiere of Maria de Buenos Aires. The opera was re-arranged by leading Argentine composer, Marcelo Nisinman and performed by legendary singer Amelita Baltar, who sang the part of Maria for the first time since she premiered side by side with Astor Piazzolla in Buenos Aires in 1968. Maria de Buenos Aires was performed by Swiss ensemble Concertino Basel, and became a great critical acclaim both in Switzerland and in Sweden. Pablo Salvador was also Artistic Director of the international production Axion Esti, in collaboration with conductor Staffan Lindroth, composer Mikis Theodorakis, baryton Jose Antonio Lopez, actor Borje Ahlstedt, Trikala Voices and Stockholm Symphonic Winds. The concert was recorded live at Berwaldhallen by Swedish Radio, and broadcasted as new year's concert 2004.

IN FILM, he has been a versatile writer-director of musicvideos, musicfilms, shorts, documentaries and feature films. During the first part of his professional development, he worked as photographer and writer-director for a number of programs at Swedish and Chilean National Television. Later he collaborated with filmmakers Luis Vera, Francisco Roca, Anders Østergaard as well as with Easy Film producer-director Ole Tornbjerg, among others. His most important experience in film writing, and a turning point in his understanding on the possibilities of filmmaking, was his collaboration with legendary director Raúl Ruiz, with whom he worked in Paris on the development of a script for Easy Film, during the beginning of 2004. This experience inspired the production of over 30 original scripts and films, as well as the development of the theory of [fragmentism], the idea that a shorter film can be thrown in loose independent pieces over a longer film, in order to create the image of a third film, which is actually never seen.

Pablo Salvador Naranjo-Golborne was born in Santiago, Chile, in November of 1974. He is a Bachelor in film from the Universities of Stockholm and Copenhagen and has studied script writing at the European Film College in Denmark. He has also classical percussion and piano studies at Concervatorio Nacional - Universidad de Chile, at Oregon University School of Music in the United States and at the Music Cocervatory in Orebro, Sweden.
