Antero who?

I'm a creative. A visual designer, writer, strategists and creative director. In my portfolio, you can find all that. Short films, visual identities, concepts for new radio channels targeted to millennials, surrealistic films for public transport operators, high-style animations to boost sneaker sales, events for global beer brands at local hipster festivals, comedy commercials for dairy products, short documentaries for Ikea and even a Super Bowl spot for Motorola directed by David Fincher.

 

I've done projects for Adidas, Amstel, Arla Foods, Finnair, Heineken, Kone Elevators, MTV, Opel, Norwegian Airlines - just to name a few. I've worked as a creative and creative director in Amsterdam, London, Los Angeles and Helsinki. In 2008, I co-founded a Helsinki based agency 358. 2013-2019 I also acted as the Chairman of Grafia - the Association of Visual Communication Designers in Finland. While doing that all, I've won several shiny trophies in many design and advertising award shows, including Cannes Lions and D&AD.

 

That's enough of bragging about me. It could be good to do a creative project together, but we can also just be friends.
