About me.

Hello! I’m Nicola Gastaldi, London based motion designer and animation director.

Currently working at Google Creative Lab, I’m proud to be also part of the directors roster at Unit9. I’ve also been a lecturer at UAL.
With more than 20 years experience, I’ve been lucky to work with some great people and friends at MPC, Ogilvy, Jack Morton, Universal Everything, Mother Design, Smoke & Mirrors.

I am very proud to have recently created an animation for the Sphere in Las Vegas.
One of my works has been included in the archives of the Department of Film, The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

I have proudly received two Vimeo Staff Picks, the Excellence Award by Gif Magazine, I’ve been part of teams that won Yellow Pencils at D&AD, Cannes Lions, FWA awards and UKMVAs awards. Some of my personal projects have been exhibited around the world and at the Design Museum in London.
