On Set

Work from the shoot, not just the timeline

These are the projects where I was on location — on a camera, handling stills, or helping keep a shoot moving — and usually back in the edit afterwards. Catching Thunder is the only one I made entirely on my own. Everything else here was a team, and I was one part of it.

The one I made alone

Catching Thunder

Director · Camera · Editor2024

The one project here I did entirely on my own. A documentary about American football in Egypt, set inside a struggling team and told through the people trying to keep it going.

I directed it, shot it on a Nikon D3200, recorded the sound and cut it myself. Nobody else touched it, which is exactly why it taught me more than anything I had done up to that point.

With a team

Shoots I worked on with other people. The role is listed per project, because it was different every time.

Diwan Perfumes

More from this project — 2

A product campaign for Diwan's fragrance line. I did a bit of everything on this one — video and stills on the day, white-background frames for the store, beauty shots for social, then the grade and retouch afterwards so both sides matched.

Khaled Mokhtar — DKKA

I cut the behind-the-scenes from the DKKA music video shoot, and shot some of it on the day along with the stills.
