Advertising
I'm a creative Director, and for the past 20 years I worked at advertising agencies in Rio, São Paulo, Buenos Aires and London, winning awards such as Cannes Lions, D&AD, Clio, London International Awards, PROMAX and Art Directors Club. Here are a few of the campaigns I've worked on.
Nextel logo launch
Nextel wanted to announce their new logo design, but nobody is interested in new logos. Inspired by the campaign theme "Talk like a parrot", we decided to make an animated short film to played on cinemas all over Argentina, that would be presented by "Nextel's new logo". The shortfilm launch was supported by a teaser on TV and web.

Powerade Copa America
Powerade was the main sponsor for Copa America, and they wanted to make a lasting impact in the fanatic football audience in Latin America.
Inspired by film studios, we developed a football ident, to be played before every game on television, that created an atmosphere of a great spectacle about to begin.

HP "Fingerskilz"
The brief was to do a viral campaign for HP during the period of the World Cup but, because they were not official sponsors, we weren’t allowed to mention football. We created our own sport of fingerball to rival the World Cup action. Our hero had a blog updated during the World Cup to show off his finger skills, to explain more about his passion and showing people how to get involved themselves. The blog attracted 10 million visitors to date and inspired lots of copies on YouTube.

GM VR Football Experience
General Motors, Isobar and Globo TV, got together to reivent how Brazilians watch their favorite sport. A mass audience immersive VR football experience
The native content on Globo's football channel worked with any smartphone and was watched by almost one million fans. Globo's audience is so massive, its ratings are the equivalent of a daily superbowl; making it the perfect partner for such a game changing partnership
The project increased dramatically the perception of impacted viewers, that GM is at the forefront of innovation and technology. With this technological landmark, GM is now permanently linked to the history of football broadcasting in Brazil, consolidating years of TV sponsorship

Google Social Impact Challenge (Campaign Hero)
The Google Impact Challenge is an initiative which rewards NGO projects that use technology as a tool for social transformation. Following the concept of “Think globally, act locally”, the aim of this initiative is to invest in the people who live with, deal with and come up with solutions for local challenges. Google believes that these good ideas can be reproduced on a global scale.
In its 2nd Brazilian edition, the Challenge received more than 1000 applications from regions throughout the country. The Hero video above was used to launch the voting campaign that would select 5 out of the 10 finalists, to be awarded R$ 1.5 million.
