ABOUT ME - SIDE A
Hello! I’m Vito, a creative director who loves defining brand direction and translating it into compelling visual storytelling.
Over 15 years, I’ve worked at international advertising agencies across Italy, Hungary, and Germany, shaping ideas for both local and global brands.
This experience taught me how creative thinking, brand direction, and production must align to create clear, consistent, and effective communication.
Today, I work as an independent creative director and art director, focusing on creative leadership, visual direction, and production supervision. I collaborate with clients, agencies, and production partners to transform strategies into ideas and ideas into high-quality campaigns, films, and visual systems.
My approach to work is defined by attention to detail, a love for aesthetics and a solid strategic foundation.
ABOUT ME - Side B
I’m originally from Eboli, a town in southern Italy near the Amalfi Coast. After living in several other cities, I settled in Düsseldorf, where I have been based for over eight years.
Outside of work, I enjoy slacklining (walking on a 2.5 mm strip of webbing), camping, bikepacking, chess and reading. These activities require problem-solving, patience, focus and strategic thinking — traits that also influence the way I approach creative work.
I’m surprisingly afraid of heights, which makes tackling a highline even more compelling. Confronting fear with preparation and focus is a way of taking on complex creative problems that I can relate to.
If you have any project enquiries, would like to collaborate, or would like to arrange a slacklining session, please get in touch.
