Edu Menezes

Edu Menezes is a motion designer, editor and director in São Paulo / Brazil
In recent years much of his work has been case films for agencies in Brazil and abroad: Africa Creative, AlmapBBDO, DM9DDB, Grey, CP+B, GUT in São Paulo and Miami, BBH New York, FCB Chicago and Ogilvy New York. In 2026 he was invited to produce and direct “Inevitable,” the case film for adidas’ new Club América kit, in Mexico City. Some of those films have won at Cannes, D&AD, The One Show, El Ojo and the Clios.
Earlier he spent five years in the finishing department at Fernando Meirelles’ O2 Filmes, and more years at other production companies in São Paulo, on hundreds of commercials, music videos, and titles and lettering for features and shorts. He coordinated finishing on the first two seasons of City of Men, for Rede Globo. After that came MTV, where he directed idents and spots, and the Museu da Língua Portuguesa in São Paulo, where he designed a room of projected poems.
He also writes his own After Effects scripts and plugins, with AI, for the repetitive part of the job.
