hi.

Hi! I'm Breno Ribeiro Balbino, award-winning Creative Director with an Art Direction background.
I’m currently working at BBDO NY.
Before BBDO NY, I worked at ALMAP BBDO, where I was the most-awarded Art Director in Brazil
in 2022 and was part of the team when the agency was nominated “Agency of the Decade” at Cannes.
I also worked at Leo Burnett Brazil and Ogilvy Brazil when the agency won "The Agency of the Year"
at Cannes , and I was the Brazilian representative at the Cannes Young Lions competition.
Before it, i worked at Lowe Brazil where i started my career.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the honor of working with incredible clients such as Volkswagen,
Samsung, Coca-Cola, Fiat, Jeep, Phillips, PepsiCo, IBM, Mondelez, Heineken, Havaianas, Johnnie Walker, Mars, Disney, among others. I've also won pitches that brought clients such as Samsung, Fiat, Mondelez, Coke Zero, Diageo, and Heineken to the agencies.
Here are some of my works, which have been recognized by the world's top advertising awards
and featured in major news outlets.
My role was 100% the conception and art direction in all of them, but this work was only possible
thanks to the huge dedication and collaboration of amazing people I’ve been lucky to work with.
I believe in positive energy and that good work only comes from teams with good vibes.
Hope you like it. Thanks for visiting :)
