About me

Founder and Creative Director of Ağıllı Nağıllar, an independent creative studio in Baku, Azerbaijan, founded in 2020. We are a team of 15 writers, designers, editors and producers with our own studio space, working across brand films, campaigns, branding and content. For six years we have created brand films and campaigns for some of the largest banks, insurers and telecom brands in our region, including ABB, Rabitabank, PASHA Insurance, Nar and Bakcell. I lead concept, script and creative direction, and our team handles editing, design, animation and production management in house. We are at our best when a brief asks for a real human story, told simply and honestly. We work remotely with international teams in English.
