Ahmed Nour

In the year of 199something, Ahmed living with his parents in Muscat - Oman, learned how to dial the phone and order his own favorite Pizza from Pizza Hut.

A VHS of a relatively - back then - new Block Buster would be offered with the pizza as a promotion. Ahmed got his pizza and a VHS of Jurassic Park 1. It was when the Velociraptor kitchen scene came on TV, Ahmed fell in love with movies.

Years later he went to finish his under graduate studies in Multimedia Design from the American University in Sharjah, and till this day he pays tribute in his work to Mr. Spielberg.

Ahmed’s career kickstarted at Dubai Media Inc’s Creative Department. Working as a Promo Producer and Senior Promo Producer later, his work there landed Multiple Promax BDA Arabia Awards. It was a significant step in Ahmed’s career because there Ahmed sharpened his scriptwriting and copywriting skills, and learned what Mr. Hitchcock meant when he said, “To make a great film you need three things – the script, the script, and the script.”

Directing was a planned and a natural progression in Ahmed’s career from his work as a Promo Producer, Copywriter and Editor. His always motivated camera work, visual language, style and ability to mix emotional, surprising and funny storytelling devices has granted him opportunities to work across a range of genres and categories, with many known international and regional clients such as Nissan, Mc Donald’s, Lifebuoy, Standard Charted, MG and agencies such as TBWA, Wunderman Thomson, and FP7.
