Creative Lead at Vertex.CGI — the Dubai studio. For two and a half years I owned the idea end-to-end: pitching to global brands, then directing shoots, CGI and sound to the final frame. The project I led generated over 450 million organic views — and each individual video garnered at least three times the median number of views on the channel.

Love the scifi world you create here, the vibe reminds me a bit of the cinematics from the game Hitman, not sure if you are familiar with it, but that's a huge compliment!
Just started following you too, can't wait to see more of your work! 😍
Web concept for bem. The product turns messy documents into structured data, so the brand does the same thing visually. Every image dissolves into pixels, every layout resolves back into grid.
How did you first come up with the idea to use pixel dissolution to represent unstructured data? Did you explore any other visual metaphors before landing on this one?
Human by Design
Human by Design is a cinematic short film that explores the quiet rituals behind creative work. The film follows an editor immersed in his work as fatigue gradually sets in. At the same time, a cup of coffee is slowly taking shape, unfolding alongside his creative journey. As both processes reach completion, he pauses, picks up the coffee, and returns to his work with renewed focus.
Built using Envato stock assets as the foundation, every creative decision, from shot selection and pacing to sound design and color progression, was carefully shaped to transform individual clips into one cohesive story. The result is a reminder that while creative tools can accelerate the process, it is human judgment, intention, and taste that give the work meaning.

This is a great reminder that editing is about storytelling, not just assembling clips. Loved how the pacing and sound design tied everything together.
