About me
An experienced Filmmaker based in London-UK (welling to relocate/travel). I also speak English, Swedish and Arabic. I have Master's degree in Filmmaking and a second degree in Game Development (CGI).
I am enthusiast, confident, capable, fast learner, and keen to be involved. I gained a rare set of skills in my professional experience.
I am a filmmaker with 3D-animation and VFX background. I have more than 10 years experience in Producing, Directing, Filming, Editing and Visual Effects (2D/3D) for broadcast and film. Usually my role varies from:
*Directing/Producing
*DoP/Cameraman.
*3D and VFX (Maya, zBrush, RealFlow)
*Editing/Compositing (Nuke, AfterEffects, Silhouette, Syntheyes, Premiere, Quantel SAM, Edius, and little Final Cut and Avid)
*On-set and/or in-house post-production supervising.
My dedication, organisation, communication, and project management are the skills that made me a team-player. Completing projects/tasks/milestones in time and budget are what made my B2B/B2C a success. I've worked on more than:
*Feature films.
*Feature animation (pre-production).
*Documentaries.
*Short films.
*Broadcast (News, VTs, Reports... etc)
I have blackmagic cameras 4k and 6k with all sorts of accessories, lighting and sound.
To date I've had only positive response to my work. My films made it to several film festivals including Madrid Film Festival, Berlin Film Market, Portmouth Film Festival, and other Festivals. Currently, I'm working on a feature called Rock Band Vs Vampires to be released 2018.

Professional Recommendations
Ivan Germano Production Assistant
I had the chance of working with Raed on the 7 video tutorials for the new OnePlus 7 Pro. I found his profile as we were in need of a Swedish-speaking editor, but he turned out to be one of the most efficient and dedicated VFX collaborators I have ever worked with. The results are highly satisfactory and he's hard work can now be seen on the official OnePlus Youtube channel. A great man, a great teammate, and absolutely recommended!
