Sciamanna can be seen very briefly as a news photographer on TV in Il testimone deve tacere (1974)

Apparently never credited in any films, Oscar nevertheless played many significant (and usually credited) roles in fotoromanzi:

Le avventure di Kolman N. 12: "Due ragazze d'oro" (September 1970)

Le avventure di Kolman N. 13: "Dove l'amore non muore mai" (October 1970)

Albi d'amore N. 2: "Teneramente" (March 1973) - credited as Oscar Sciamm

Terrifik N. 3: "Terrifik contro il Padrino" (November 1973)

By the late 1970s, Oscar apparently moved away from acting and began a new career as a director of fotoromanzi for the famed magazine Grand Hotel. During the 1980s, he got the chance to direct a lot of famous actors, and here are a few examples of fotoromanzi directed by Oscar:

"Il ghetto d'oro", published in Grand Hotel during 1986

"Il tormento e la speranza", published in Grand Hotel during 1987

"Le stelle si amano così", published in Grand Hotel during 1988

La morte ha sorriso all'assassino (1973) in an unusual horror movie as a party guest.

it's about a man who discovers a formula to bring back the dead to extract his revenge.
