His work has been recognised at Cannes Lions, the Czech ADC Creative Awards and Lürzer's Archive, and he represented Czechia at the Cannes Young Lions, which he won nationally.
He's self-taught from the start — what began as teaching himself Photoshop out of curiosity turned into a first role as a Graphic Designer, and within a year, into a full shift into Art Direction, where he's built his career since.
Outside of agency work, Danila directs and shoots his own film and photography projects, and is the founder and creative director of an independent brand he's building from the ground up — from visual identity through to product.
Danila Shlenov is an Art Director based in Prague, shaping campaigns and visual identity across film, social, digital and OOH for internationally recognised brands.
