Moment in Time, heads Coppola Pictures the company that produced the

Orlando, after traveling and studying mythology, later continued his career in film as a freelance cinematographer and editor.

In 1996, he was offered a contract by Author's Agency for his supernatural thriller, Madam Death. His other credits include an adaptation of Mark Helprin's novel, "Soldier of The Great War, as well as the Golden Eagle Award for his short film noir parody, The Deal.
