I'M A CREATIVE DIRECTOR
OPEN TO MOVE WORLDWIDE
THE STORY SO FAR, IN A NUTSHELL
I’m Mic Piovosi, a Milan-based Deputy Creative Director with 10 years of experience in advertising. I started as a copywriter and moved into the Deputy Creative Director role in 2023 - officially.
Unofficially, I’ve always been directing things. Ideas, stories, projects, my own path. For me, creativity is how life and work overlap, clash and feed each other.
I’m a hands-on Creative Director. I don’t stop at the idea or the headline. I like to get into the work, explore new formats and technologies, build systems, and push projects beyond what’s expected. Strategy matters, craft matters, but so does instinct.
I’ve worked across brands, categories and platforms, from global campaigns to social-first storytelling and long-term content systems. What I’m always looking for is relevance: ideas that feel culturally grounded, emotionally true and visually sharp.
Outside agency life, I keep my creative muscles active. I sing in a band (The Well of Loneliness), write and draw comics and illustrations, shoot photographs and co-write and host a sci-fi podcast (Last Station Before the Void, Ultima Stazione and Dagli archivi del Deposito 6).
