Me, Myself and I
Hi. My name is Silvio Medeiros.
Since 2016, I have transitioned from agency work to production and scene direction, which I have been doing independently. Throughout my career, I have won 8 Cannes Lions and had 21 finalists in Cannes.
Previously, I worked as a Creative Director at Lew,Lara/TBWA starting in early 2016. Before that, I spent two years as Creative Director at Ogilvy São Paulo, where I led the creative direction for Allianz, Mondelez, and Nestlé. My work has been recognized at some of the most prestigious international awards such as Cannes, D&AD, Facebook Awards, and Luerzer's Archive.
Before joining Ogilvy Brazil, I was Creative Director at Heads São Paulo. In less than 2 years, I helped Heads increase its size by more than 200% and saw it featured among Brazil's top 20 agencies for the first time. Under my direction, Heads SP achieved numerous awards, including 2 Shortlists in Cannes 2013, 1 Sol de Bronce at FIAP 2014, and features in Luerzer's Archive and Shots Magazine, as well as major news outlets like Time and ABC News. I also became the 6th highest-ranked Brazilian Art Director of Luerzer's Archive in the past 10 years.
Prior to Heads, I spent 5 years at JWT as an Art Director, where I was one of the agency's most awarded creatives, winning 4 Cannes Lions along with regional and local awards such as El Ojo de Iberoamerica, FIAP, Wave Festival, and Creative Club of São Paulo.
In 2006, I achieved the highest score among Brazilian creative professionals under 28 years old at the YoungLions Brazil contest. I was then selected to represent Brazil in the YoungLions Competition at the Cannes Festival, where I won the Golden Lion.
Before JWT, I was part of GiovanniFCB for 2 years, where I won the only Silver Pencil from Brazil at the 2005 One Show. My career began in 2000 in Curitiba at Loducca, and in 2004, I became the most awarded art director regionally before joining the São Paulo advertising scene.
