CIRA LÓPEZ FERNÁNDEZ
 Conceptual copywriter I’m a 33 year old woman with a lot of interests. I communicate enthusiastically and I enjoy working in a team. I love to dance, listen to music, write, move by bicycle and eat sunflower seeds. I have a special experience on food and drink advertising, in where I’ve always tried to make equal communication between men and women. And it is not easy in a field where even nowadays the woman place is in the kitchen! I choose for being freelancer because I wanted to try another discipline and client types. Besides being a freelancer I’ve written a teenage novel and now I’m working on publishing it. I’m easy going, hard working and happy. |

RUTGER MULLEMEISTER
Photographer
In 2002 I started a business as portrait photographer. Soon it became a success and clients from all over the country found their way to the studio in Rotterdam. After four years specializing in portraiture, I am now expanding my business into the field of fashion. Several clients already commissioned me for editorial photoshoots and advertisements. For me, photographing people is the most fascinating job I can think of. During a shoot I make people happy. Enthusiasm and the way I treat the models, is my USP. I always get the best out of the model. |
SOLON GIOVANNI DE PAULA MIRANDA
Art director
started working 10 years ago in Rio de Janeiro. After 2 years working there I was looking for an improvement and I decided to move to Sao Paulo, the biggest market in Brazil. After a few months I got a big chance to work at W/Brasil and one year after I was invited to work at DM9DDB, one of the best agencies in Brazil. I can tell that there I got the best opportunities in my career. I worked with big clients and big professionals and I can say that in that time I became a really art director. |
