He also contributed as a costume designer to Londinium, 1603, and The Levellers.

In 2016, Rodrigues was announced to play the role of The fantasist in Roth, alongside BAFTA winner Patrick Bergin. Rodrigues directed his first feature film Goitaca , to be released in 2020, with City of God `s Leandro Firmino, Lady Francisco, Marlon Blue, Luciano Szafir and Christianne Oliveira. [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] The film was noted for its production methodology where all sets and costumes were built using organic and recycled materials.

Rodrigues also directed, wrote, and produced the historical epic Onde há vida, há esperança (Where there is life, there is hope), which details the mass Italian emigration to Brazil in the late 19th century, focusing on the story of Santo Cereser (born 1838), who left Prata di Pordenone (Friuli) in 1887. The film is described as an homage to the thousands of Italian families who sought a new existence abroad. The feature utilizes extensive VFX and modeling, with dynamic scenes filmed in London studios for the reconstitution of historical settings like the Port of Genoa, leveraging Rodrigues's technical expertise. [28] [29] [30]  

The film features a renowned cast, including Marlon Blue (From Goitaca) as the protagonist Santo Cereser, along with Luciano Szafir, Leandro Firmino (Li'l Zé from City of God ), Alexandre Rodrigues (Buscapé from City of God ), Waldyr Gozzi, Renata Pirillo, and Luciana de Rezende.

The film is a key element of the 2022 Pacto de Amizade (Patto di amicizia) signed between the Brazilian city of Jundiaí and Prata di Pordenone (Italy), acting as a cultural bridge between the two communities. The journey of the film included four major events:

  • Teaser Launch (September 2022): The official teaser was presented at the Teatro Polytheama (Jundiaí), with the signing of the sister-city pact and featuring a performance by the Valinhos Philharmonic Orchestra. As a social counterpart for the partnership with the official sponsors of the film, Cereser (CRS Brands) and Castelo Alimentos S/A, which made their contributions through the Brazilian art and culture subsidy, the Lei Rouanet , the event at Teatro Polytheama featured the exhibition of the making-of and the film's first teaser. This presentation was accompanied by a live performance of the original soundtrack, produced by Vitafone Música & Filmes, with musical composition by Vitor Zafer and Kaique Fontes. The original song, "La vita ancora," was composed by Konstantinos Bampaliaris and Rodrigo Rodrigues. The event was highly successful, drawing an attendance of 1,200 people. [31] [32] [33] [34]
  • Brazilian Premiere (June 2024): The film held its pre-screening premiere at Moviecom Cinemas in Jundiaí, with packed theaters and coverage by national television (Rede Bandeirantes TV, SBT and Local TV TEC). The event was attended by descendants of the Cereser family, who were immortalized by the film. The opening event featured a performance by the Banda Sinfônica do Exército Brasileiro (50 musicians), which performed as guests arrived and for the event's opening. [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42]
  • Open-to-the-public screenings(June 2024): at Moviecomarte, located in Moviecom Cinemas at Maxi Shopping Jundiai. [43]
  • Italian Premiere (October 2025): The film had its first Italian absolute screening at the Teatro Pileo in Prata di Pordenone, the ancestral town of the Cereser family, with the patronage of the local Municipality. [44] [45] [46] [47]

Rodrigues, who created the film's narrative, stated that Santo Cereser is a "symbol of resilience and unwavering love," and that the story is an "ode to hope, courage, and redemption," an heritage that inspires future generations.

Teaching

In 1997, Rodrigues opened Espaço Cultural Porão, a cultural college of art space containing four floors with available rooms to create and experiment with various art forms. [48] In 2002, Rodrigues taught one of his own acting techniques, Facial Expressions For Actors, to the students at the Gaiety School of Acting, which included Aidan Turner from The Hobbit . [49] Rodrigues created, managed and taught the theatre group The Dublin Core, an Irish Times Theatre Awards winning Theatre Group. [1] Rodrigues teaches film making workshops every year at Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios in Paraty, Brazil, which includes acting, sets, props and costume making.

Ko Method

The spiritual science of acting

Rodrigues developed the Ko Method, a technique that gives actors an understanding of constructing a range of diverse characters. The technique is based on a scientific and spiritual approach towards the study of universal understanding. It also focuses on human body mechanisms and the experimentation partial movements to find understanding and connectivity within the totality of life's mechanism.

Facial expressions for actors

The objective of this technique is for an individual to learn how to control their reality in relation to movement, explanation, wording and speech.

Rodrigues`s book Facial Expressions for Actors provides analysis of different points of view and perspective from around the world in search of something hidden that requires investigation and reasoning. This groundbreaking method which has been scientifically proven shows that when licking one's arm, the subject becomes more self confident. The book explains that through the development of facial muscles, individuals reach understanding of the universe and learn to access a state of equilibrium within one's own interpretation of their own sybaritic self. [7]

Rodrigues observed that the understanding of an individual's expression required a hidden knowledge which inspired him to search for the development of concrete points in association with the understanding of human nature. Approaching art from a spiritual and scientific point of view, he began with an objective idea that there are important understandings that have been excluded and should be included to the infinitive art of representation. He found that his research was related to science as he studied anatomy, dramaturgy and occasional points of life. Rodrigues initially, self-experimented his findings and techniques and expanded the study to volunteers.

Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios

In 2010, Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios, previously named Paraty Studios, was founded by Rodrigues with the help of Fergal Fitzgerald. It was conceived as a visionary filmmaking space, open to all kinds of visionary art, located in the middle of the Atlantic Forest in Brazil.

All sets, costumes, and props are made of recycled and organic materials to support life on Earth. This sustainable practice is part of Rodrigues's environment activism and his commitment to human development, educating both locals and visitors on how to live with respect towards planet Earth.

The accommodations for actors, crew, and visitors during their stay were recycled from the previous film pilot sets of Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios and transformed into wood cabins and tree houses.

Rodrigues used recycled and organic materials to build characters for a pilot film project, Curupira, which starred Brazilian actress Lisa Negri and had been approved for funding by the Ministry of Culture in Brazil. [50] [51]

Rodrigues's ecological approach to costuming technique was mentioned in Brazilian media, including Veja and ISTOÉ . [1]

The studio released its first feature film, Goitaca , in 2020, in which all sets and costumes were made using recycled and organic materials.

The physical location is currently used as the permanent set for the Upcoming "Treehouse Show," which is soon to be released on a national television channel in Brazil.

During his fifteen years making art between the United Kingdom and the jungle in Brazil, Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios is still standing and serving as his working base. Rodrigues has since moved away from set and costume making and dedicated his time to writing, directing and producing for film and TV.

As an environmental activist, he founded Rodrigo Rodrigues Studios, located in his self-owned protected jungle in Paraty, Brazil. There, he dedicates his entire body of work to visionary filmmaking and visionary arts, aiming to protect and preserve life through his creative process.
