About me

Nassim Dirany

I am a natural storyteller who is passionate about capturing experiences through digital media. I offer compelling digital solutions where I tell an authentic story that actually resonates, thus converting customers to brand advocates. I am highly experienced in videography, animation, design, web, post-production, and other forms of media documentation. I am self-driven to solve complex challenges and work relentlessly to wow my clients and exceed their needs. 

I kicked off my career as a graphic designer. At that point in life, I did everything possible to enrich my knowledge. I designed books, flyers, logos, brand identities… My love for design never stopped. I was able to build and expand my career to become a video editor and animator and I was capable of directing/creating Ads, TVCs, Infographics, Business Briefs, Lyrics Videos, and Webshows.

Early since I was 10 years old, I was driven by curiosity, trying to explore new technologies. Back then, a computer machine was like a mysterious box. If that screen wasn’t a TV, what was it then? Over the years my thirst for knowledge grew stronger and my learning was more fulfilling. However, I didn’t limit myself, each day I learned a new talent and a new set of skills. And because personal growth is a very real part of being engaged at work, I laid down ambitious goals for myself. If you may, take a look at my career path timeline.
