El Autobús started its journey in 2005, and along the way has gathered amazing friends, clients and praise . What started out as a traditional advertising agency quickly evolved to incorporate creative disciplines that added value to our strategies and ideas. Under the “creative everything” umbrella, we’ve gathered a diverse group of creatives, planners, directors, illustrators, designers and musicians working as a team to develop creative communication ideas for brands and people. Ideas that add value, gain  followers, generate results, move, entertain and  inspire.

Our projects range from the development and production of creative original content for TV Network shows to designing the cover for an independent rock band’s latest single. From managing the social media of a local community bank to developing the Latin American campaign for an international entertainment brand.

We’ve worked for large corporations such as Santander Bank, Banesco, HBO and Discovery Communications, developing communication strategies and advertising campaigns. We are also very active developing new small businesses and working with creative entrepreneurs. We love campaigns with a big heart as well, like the ones we’ve made for Unicef and CAF The Development Bank of Latin America’s social programs.

Our office and studio are located in Wynwood, Miami, Fl. On any given day there’s a video shoot in our studio, an art exhibition in our gallery space or a music jam in the hall. This bus is thriving with projects, ideas and fresh concepts to share with our clients and friends. The kind of ideas that keep us motivated to meet  our goal of making a difference for the brands we work with, and that make this such a challenging and engaging trip.  

Get on the bus!

Our team brings together people with great experience as well as outstanding new talents. Roberto and Simon started this project after a successful career leading the creative department of large international ad agencies.  Their work has been awarded in festivals such as Cannes Lions, Clio, New York Festival, London Festival, Fiap and Ojo de Iberoamérica.

Together with Sandra, another renowned Creative Director who also has notable experience working for TV Networks, they lead a group of stellar talents in the fields of graphic design, visual production and creative content development.

We are an integrated team of passionate creatives and our goal is to maintain long lasting relationships with everyone we work with. Many large corporate brands and broadcasting networks share the ride on the bus with small businesses and emerging new brands.

They are all equally exciting and challenging to work with and we enjoy the learning experience and possibilities each one presents. As someone once said, “Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common.”
