G’day, I'm Artem
Creative Director, Art Director, and Storywriter
I’m a Creative Director, Storywriter, and Art Director with 10+ years of experience at the crossroads of art, humor, tech, sustainability, and video games. I lead projects from start to finish, making sure every detail shines. Currently based in Frankfurt, Germany, I've spent the last 6 years leading the creative team at Wunderman Thompson (POSSIBLE, Hungry Boys, Grape), shaping dozens of ad campaigns.
Here’s what I do:
Create ad concepts, stories, and campaigns (and I make them good).
Build communication strategies with the strategy team.
Work closely with account teams to meet clients' needs, timing, and budgets.
Oversee everything from production to completion—director’s bidding, casting, costumes, locations, editing, CG, and sound.
I’ve launched campaigns for brands like Samsung, Kaspersky, Yandex, Delivery Club, PepsiCo, Mercedes-Benz, WWF, Greenpeace, and more.
My work has won Webby, FWA, Effie, Cannes Lions, One Show, Red Dot Grand Prix, and other trophies that made my babushka proud. I’ve also been the Chairman of the Art Director's Club of Russia and a jury member for several European, Russian, Central Asian, and U.S. festivals.
I teach courses like "How to Create Ideas in the Post-Digital Era" and "VR/AR in Real Life" at M-A-C-S (British High School of Art & Design). When I'm not working, I write sci-fi, fantasy, and comedy scripts, play guitar, piano, drums, and write music. Oh, and I love hand drawing and photography because, well, aesthetics.
