I have extensive experience in creating and developing corporate images, specialising in advertising graphics, web design, photography and drone filming. I have international experience, particularly in Italy and Ukraine, which has allowed me to gain a deep understanding of local market dynamics and business opportunities between the two countries. I offer integrated visual communication services, with a focus on consistency and brand strategy.
Marco Gallipoli

art director

Advertising graphic designer and photographer with a passion for social research.
Born in Rome and having lived in Perugia for 15 years, since 2011 I have been living between Italy and Ukraine, which has allowed me to develop an international outlook towards other countries.

Academically, I am an advertising technician, and this academic background in advertising and mass communication has given me knowledge of analytical methodologies and techniques in marketing and corporate image.

I began my professional career as a graphic designer in 1998, and from 2002 to 2009 I owned an advertising graphics agency, which taught me how to deal with all kinds of business issues.

In 2010, with the need to travel and be able to move around easily, I decided to work as a freelancer, learning to manage projects independently in all phases and expanding my range of professional skills.

Over the years, I have had the opportunity to learn about and understand different types of markets, often very different from each other.

In almost thirty years of working with small and medium-sized enterprises in Italy and abroad, I have gained experience both in analysing specific targets and in the difficulties of corporate communication with very limited budgets, always managing to achieve the agreed results.
