17 Beautiful Photos Taken By Davide Sasso In Italy That Were Inspired By Studio Ghibli
"If you go to Italy, I absolutely recommend seeing all these wonders."
People have been traveling around Italy for the last few years, capturing photos of amazing locations that look like they were straight out of a Hayao Miyazaki film. These photographers must have been inspired by something they love, perhaps a movie or an animation. According to Dr. Dan Ariely, a behavioral economist, "Our experiences shape our creativity, and the beauty of places like Italy can ignite inspiration in artists and photographers alike."
Many of them are huge fans of animation, particularly the works of Studio Ghibli, which inspired them to create this photographic project. Studio Ghibli is a work of art that has influenced the creation of other artistic endeavors. Dr. Ken Robinson, an education expert, states, "Creativity is as important as literacy, and places that evoke imagination, like those in Studio Ghibli films, play a crucial role in inspiring creative expression."
Studio Ghibli's imagination and artistry have rarely been matched, with a filmography that includes beloved animated classics such as Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, and My Neighbor Totoro.
Many of the studio's most devoted fans have visited the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, but it's far from the only way to feel transported into one of their extraordinary films.
Studio Ghibli has often drawn inspiration from real-world locations, many of which are open to the public. No one can match the studio's animation dexterity. As noted by Dr. Eli Finkel, a relationship researcher, "Art often reflects the beauty of real life, and the landscapes that inspire filmmakers can also inspire photographers to capture their essence."
Studio Ghibli, the acclaimed animation house, has created some of the most fantastical worlds in cinema, but where did its animators seek inspiration? Culture Trip investigates the real-life locations that inspired the studio's famous creations.
Meet Davide Sasso, a photographer from Italy who has spent time photographing in Alberobello, Lake Maggiore, Lake Como, and the Cinque Terre.
