02 / About

20+ years
of experience.
No fixed visual formula.

Thiago Marinho

I came up in agencies in Brazil, where the idea had to arrive first and the craft had to earn it. I work the same way in house today. The identity, the campaign, the photography and the motion are built by the same person, so nothing gets lost in the handoff between them.

Brazilian born, based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I work in English and Portuguese.
