Dirty Work Joins Lemonade for Global Representation

​Lemonade has signed Dirty Work, the award-winning Brazilian animation studio, for global representation.

Driven by storytelling and a strong design sensibility, Dirty Work is known for crafting original, artsy worlds from the ground up. Based in São Paulo with a presence across international markets, the studio has built a reputation for distinctive, handcrafted animation that blends emotional depth with bold visual languages. Their work has been recognised at some of the world’s most prestigious festivals across advertising and entertainment.

The signing marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Dirty Work as they enter a period of international expansion while staying true to the values that define them. Looking ahead to 2026, the studio plans to push further into projects that blur the line between animation and art direction, developing longer-form narrative work, taking greater creative risks, and collaborating with agencies and brands that value originality over formula.

​Ito Andery, Dirty Work’s co-founder, commented, “Lemonade and Dirty Work just make sense. A little sweet, a little messy, and full of bold ideas. We’re ready to create new stories, get our hands dirty, and turn great ideas into fun, unexpected work.”

​Corin West, managing director at Lemonade, added, “Dirty Work is exactly the kind of studio we love to champion, emotionally driven, design-led, and unapologetically original. Their craft, ambition and artistic integrity set them apart, and we’re excited to help amplify their voice globally as they enter this next creative phase.”

Together, Lemonade and Dirty Work aim to support brands and agencies seeking distinctive animated storytelling - work that feels human, expressive, and visually brave.
