About
My name is Linda Scerpella and I am a London-based motion graphics designer.
With a background in graphic design from my lovely Switzerland, I graduated with a First-Class Honours Degree in Visual Effects and Motion Graphics at Brunel University.
I like experimenting with different techniques and styles and I am able to adapt depending on the job. I consider myself as an extremely enthusiastic and hard-working person, capable of working both on my own and as part of a team.
I love storytelling and I am looking for my place in the beautiful world of moving images.
During my studies I had work experience at Peter Anderson Studio in London as an animation and brand intern. I am proud to have collaborated with fantastic teams at Huge Designs and at Pentland Brands. I am currently working with the amazing people at Blue Spill.
I had the pleasure to work on projects commissioned by Sky Vision, the BBC, Netflix, MGM, Speedo and AMC Studios, amongst others.
Some of the things people say about me…
The quality of Linda’s work creates a great deal of trust in her ability to complete projects to a high standard, and her ability to remain unflustered during high pressure periods proved her ability to work well under pressure.
On a personal level, Linda is a fantastic person to work with. She is pleasant, professional and always treats everyone around her with courtesy and respect.Maria Ferrer Iori, CEO & Founder, FitSprint.com
Linda is extremely talented, conscientious and thorough, as well as being a great communicator, a rare combination.

Linda delivered a professional, thought-provoking presentation alongside demonstrating skills in a broad range of disciplines. We sensed Linda’s hardworking ethos and excitement to learn.
Pentland Brands Team
Linda joined the team to work on a global integrated campaign to launch Speedo’s latest Fastskin range. This range is the highest profile of all Speedo suits and will be worn by world class athletes during the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
She grasped the concept for the campaign and straight away brought new ideas and a great work ethic with her. Working at pace to a very high standard Linda created, developed and deployed excellent motion graphics to suit multiple channels and activations. She then turned her hand to editing to bring to life narratives for films to appear in retail and across social media. She’s a great communicator, offering up multiple solutions to problems and always willing to help. Linda has been a joy to work with and an integral part to delivering a very well received campaign.
