Animation and Motion Design Studio

Giulio and Andrea are the founders of Novenero. Giulio got his start early in his father's advertising studio and has been working as a graphic designer ever since. At 22 years old, he branched out to doing freelance projects for different agencies, but what truly launched his career was the experience he earned working for studio Addikt in the Netherlands.

Andrea is a self-taught motion designer with a background in chemistry and pharmaceutical technology who discovered his passion for this art form later in life. In 2006, he also moved to the Netherlands and honed his skills working for several studios and agencies.

Giulio and Andrea met in Amsterdam thanks to the Hello Savants collective. Together they founded the animation and motion graphics studio Novenero, which has collaborated with a variety of brands over the years, including Facebook, HP, and Tommy Hilfiger.
