关于
I’m Valentino Hu, an Italian-born Chinese photographer and videographer, and the founder of Chino Vision. Raised in Florence and partly in China, my multicultural background strongly influences my creative perspective. Before launching Chino Vision, I studied media and visual arts at Media School Hilversum and Grafisch Lyceum Utrecht in the Netherlands. I began my career capturing street life and music culture, later expanding into music videos, BTS content, and fashion visuals. Now based in Rotterdam, I work across fashion, music, and urban culture, creating bold, cinematic work rooted in authenticity.
