So I was just checking if I was googlable enough by now :) and stumbled on a page on MediaME.com. It features some of my work, specifically a case study on Barbican which was a huge marketing success. It also features a recent viral campaign I shot for HSBC.

"a modern website, with semantic markup, completely styled with CSS, and with no Javascript at all whatsoever! [...] purely with xhtml/css" or so the father of this child claims (W from fungusworkshop.com) - we're still waiting for DNA tests.
well hope you enjoy the new work and write back with any complaints.
Here's one of the promo's I shot for MTV arabia. it's a fun little film.
Shot on location in Baalbek-Lebanon, the image was treated later on to mimic the old Lebanese Tourism Board postcards from the 60's and 70's, where the skies where manually retouched with a bright flat cyan color.
The Dabkeh wardrobe (Stylist - Bchara Atallah) and dance (Choreographer - Charles Makriss) were designed with the original Baalbek Fesival troops from the 60's, including our beloved Sabah and Nasri Shamseddine.
