Luisa Barone

I am a producer and media professional with a background in international journalism, television production, and strategic communications, currently serving as a Producer at Outerboro Films on a contract basis in New York, a role I have held since September 2025, where I contribute to documentary and vertical video productions.

Prior to this role, I worked as a Media Specialist at Coca-Cola HBC on a contract basis, where I conducted a comprehensive daily review of business and corporate news related to the food and beverage industry in Italy, analyzing key developments and market trends, selecting relevant articles, and compiling a concise daily press review distributed to the entire executive leadership team to keep them informed on critical market insights.

I also worked as an Assistant Producer at NBCUniversal on a freelance basis for two years in Rome, providing logistical and editorial support for major breaking news events including the death of Pope Emeritus Benedetto XVI, Pope Francis' hospitalization, and his ruling on same-sex couples marriage, and served as the sole reporter on the ground for NBC's London Desk covering press conferences of Israeli hostages' families and Palestinian victims' relatives in Gaza.

Earlier in my career, I served as a Press Office Intern at the US Embassy in Rome, where I wrote daily Italy Press Capsules summarizing Italian media coverage for distribution to U.S. government officials, produced video content for the Embassy's Instagram account, and conducted research and drafted speeches and press releases. I also served as a News Desk Intern at HuffPost Italy, where I contributed to digital publishing and breaking news coverage.

Across my career in media, production, and communications, my work has been driven by a passion for storytelling, a commitment to accuracy, and a deep interest in international affairs and current events. Whether I am producing video content, analyzing market trends, or covering breaking news, I bring strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a dedication to delivering clear, compelling, and actionable content to audiences and decision-makers. I am proud of the work I have done throughout my career and excited to continue growing as a producer and media professional.
