As creative directors at Founders, Martin Alfred and Felipe Rostagnol share a love for the advertising industry that goes back to childhood. For Rostagnol, “Since I was a kid, I liked editing video games more than playing them. From that moment on, being able to create something new that breaks the established has always motivated me.”

Meanwhile, “I grew up in the golden age of Argentine advertising, we watched TV, and the commercials were funnier and more intelligent than the shows,” Alfred told Adweek.
