As a creative and art director, I've spent 10 years immersed in the vibrant city of Milan, working in the fashion and luxury goods field. I gained valuable experience in various creative and production agencies, a prominent design corporation, and a well-known fashion magazine. The creative consultancy I offer is:
CREATIVE & ART DIRECTION / FILM TREATMENT MOOD ARTIST & ART DIRECTION / BRAND CONSULTING, IDENTITY & STRATEGY / EDITORIAL DIRECTION / CONTENT CREATION, STORYTELLING & PRODUCTION
From creative strategy to art direction, moving through different creative fields of print & digital media, I have worked on creating photo and video campaigns, lookbooks, brand identities and other visual outputs and engaging content for fashion, design, art and luxury goods. I have collaborated with international creative and production agencies, working with highly professional teams for international clients: Armani, Calvin Klein, Diesel, Furla, Gianvito Rossi, Isabel Marant, Lancôme, Loewe, L’Officiel Italia / L’Officiel Hommes Italia, L’Oreal, Nike, Orciani, Pantene, Park Hyatt, Salvatore Ferragamo, Saucony, Schwarzkopf, Syoss, Vogue, Yamamay.
