My story
My name is Eduardo Pellegrino, and I’m a creative!
Finding a precise label has never been easy for me, so I prefer to start from something more honest: I’ve always been extremely curious.
I was born in Brescia, Italy, in 2000, and from a young age I’ve been drawn to technology and to anything that didn’t work properly. In middle school I used to take computers apart to figure out what was wrong with them. I didn’t always manage to put them back together, but I always learned something. Like many people born around that time, I had two main dreams growing up: becoming a football player or a YouTuber. The first never really took off, the second never took off either, but it taught me a lot!! That’s where I built the foundations of what I know today, driven by the curiosity to create something without knowing how to do it, thanks also to tutorials. I love tutorials! (I made my first pasta with tomato sauce by following a tutorial, and my mom made fun of me for a long time :)
At 16, I created my first commissioned video using my brother’s iPhone, which I was only allowed to borrow for the afternoon after lunch. From there, I started building my own gear and skills, working across video, effects, graphics, and motion. I loved this work because it allowed me to discover places and contexts I would have never experienced otherwise.
Over time, video started to lose the initial energy it gave me, and that’s when I discovered the world of communication and branding. I moved to Milan to study Communication Design, give more structure to my ideas, and experience metropolitan life for the first time. After my studies, I moved to Switzerland, working in an agency and collaborating with large, structured teams, an experience that taught me a lot about the value of collaboration.
Since 2024, I’ve been living in Copenhagen, a city I keep discovering every day, with its ups and downs, especially when I pay 4 euros for a coffee :) if I’m lucky. Despite that, it’s the fresh air I was looking for and the right place to keep growing, both on a human and creative level!
After 9 years in videomaking, 4 in branding, and 2 in motion, I’m still driven by the same thing that started it all: curiosity, and the excitement of discovering new tools, languages, and ways to create.
