I am a senior Italian graphic designer from Rome, Italy, actually living in Dubai, with over 21 years of experience in 2D design and 3D animation for television, film, advertising, events, real estate, and visual effects. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with both national and international brands, including Yves Saint Laurent and Total, developing a creative approach that blends strong aesthetics with strategic thinking.
In recent months, I have contributed to the visual communication of major global events such as GITEX, LEAP, Arab Health, and the Arab Media Summit 2025, for which I created the anamorphic opening video. The project earned me praise from the entourage of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the current ruler of Dubai.
Today, I design visual content ranging from 2D brand identities to immersive 3D experiences, including anamorphic videos and high-impact event visuals. My goal is to transform ideas and messages into powerful, memorable imagery that fully aligns with a brand’s vision.
LEAP in Riyadh is one of the world’s leading technology events, bringing together global innovators in AI, cybersecurity, robotics, and digital transformation. Among its key participants, Technology Control Company (TCC) stands out as a Saudi leader in secure digital infrastructure, ICT solutions, and advanced analytics.
To represent TCC’s identity at LEAP, I created an anamorphic 3D video featuring the company’s symbolic Swift Bird. This bird embodies agility, elusiveness, and resilience, mirroring TCC’s approach to cybersecurity.
The animation uses anamorphic perspective, a technique that makes the image appear to burst out of a flat screen. Though displayed on a standard LED wall, the bird seems to fly into real space, creating a striking visual illusion that reinforces TCC’s dynamic and forward-leaning vision.
In 2008, I created this piece for the commemorative celebration of the birth of the Yves Saint Laurent brand. The video was showcased along the Croisette of a special fashion event held in Rome, designed exclusively for the occasion.
The work pays tribute to the spirit of YSL, capturing the blend of elegance, artistic daring, and quiet revolution that defined the maison. Conceived as a visual homage, the video traces the iconic essence of the brand while interpreting its legacy through contemporary motion and light.
Presented during an evening dedicated to memory and style, the piece served as both a celebration of Yves Saint Laurent’s influence and a reminder of how his signature vision continues to shape modern fashion.
For GITEX 2024 in Dubai, Pico commissioned a unique anamorphic 3D video installation designed to spotlight Dubai Chambers’ vision for innovation and business growth. The piece combined immersive visuals with real-time interaction, transforming a narrative showcase into an engaging learning experience.
At the center of the installation was an anamorphic scene engineered to appear as though its elements extended beyond the physical screen. This illusion—visible from a precise focal point—created a dynamic sense of depth as key themes of trade, entrepreneurship, and global connectivity unfolded in 3D space.
The experience became fully interactive through a rotating console that visitors activated to progress through the content. As users turned the console, the animation responded, revealing information, unlocking transitions, and presenting short quiz-style prompts. The result functioned as an informative game, blending motion, narrative, and user choice.
This compact installation offered a memorable, fast-paced way for attendees to explore Dubai Chambers’ initiatives, using anamorphic art and tactile interaction to turn information into an immersive moment.
A general showreel featuring many of my best works created from 2004 to 2021. The quality of some videos reflects the time in which they were made; I chose not to use AI to restore them, so as not to lose the original character and patina they retain.
This video was created as a teaser for a game that combines a traditional board game format with a digital, interactive experience. The game originated from an idea by Roberto Zorfini, an Italian director and screenwriter based in Montreal, Canada. The demo was produced in 2012. The video was filmed by Zorfini himself, while the visual effects, along with others throughout the approximately two-minute video, were created by me.
