Simone's work
About Simone
I was 16 y.o. and I was reading a magazine while I was shitting.
In that magazine I discovered that there was a website in which you could make money thanks to your ideas.
That website was called Zooppa, a global social network for creative talent that partners with companies to launch user-generated advertising campaigns.
I started participating in some contests.
I started winning some contests.
I fell in love with Advertising and with everything linked to creativity.
I won a scholarship for Ied, Turin.
I refused it and I went to the Academy of Art in San Francisco to study Advertising for a semester.
Three videos and one poster of mine were selected for the final Spring Show at that Academy.
Usually only seniors got in.
In the meantime I've been working freelance for Alberto Luna, an advertising and marketing consultant.
Together, we worked with brands such as Diesel, Lottomatica Group, Pirelli as well as for the event "World Wide Rome".
After coming back from San Francisco, Santo Buenos Aires opened a new office in Italy, Milan.
Their Creative Director saw my works and offered me a job.
I had to stop my studies.
I refused the offer and moved to London.
I will attend a BA in Advertsing at the London College of Communication in October.
I was just taking a shit, but that shit changed my life.
