Auguste and Louis Lumière
In 1887 he moved with his parents and two brothers from his native Ripatransone to Rome, where his father worked as a state civil servant. There Illuminati met personnel of Auguste and Louis Lumière, who imported the new techniques of the cinema from France and taught them to young people. He became a pupil of Gaston Velle, director of the production company Cines and learned how to use the movie camera.
