I'm a Dubai-based filmmaker and senior motion designer with 12+ years of experience across TVCs, branded films, documentary work, broadcast motion, post-production, and social-first video. I lead camera-led and post-led storytelling from idea to final frame, translating briefs into treatments, style frames, shoot support, edit rhythm, motion graphics, compositing, color, QC, and delivery for flagship campaigns with Gulf brands, tourism boards, and government-backed entities. I build end-to-end post workflows, guide editors and designers, and architect AI-enabled creative ecosystems to speed up production and unlock scale. My work spans automotive, travel, fashion, entertainment, and social storytelling, including campaigns for Volkswagen Middle East, Visit Dubai, DP World, Expo 2020, Emirates Airlines, Lucid Motors KSA, Red Bull, and VOX Cinemas. I thrive in fast-paced teams and turn ideas into cinematic, platform-ready assets.
