ABOUT ME - SIDE A
Hello! I'm Vito, a creative director who loves defining brand direction and turning it into exciting visual storytelling.
I've got over 15 years' experience working at international advertising agencies across Italy, Hungary and Germany. During that time, I've been involved in shaping ideas for both local and global brands.
This experience taught me that if you want to communicate something clearly, consistently and effectively, you've got to get your creative thinking, brand direction and production all on the same page.
These days, I work as an independent creative director and art director, focusing on creative leadership, visual direction, and production supervision. I work with clients, agencies, and production partners to turn strategies into ideas and ideas into top-notch campaigns, films, and visual systems.
I'm a detail-oriented person with a passion 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.
