Farhan Ahmed
I design, edit and direct visual work for brands that want to be remembered.
I work across *visual* *design,* *video* *editing* and *creative* *direction.* Always chasing fresh ideas, better tools and sharper ways to say something visually.

Self taught in a lockdown, sharpened at design school, and now making work I actually believe in.
- 2020
It started in lockdown
With the world shut and nothing to do, I taught myself the basics of video editing and graphic design. Then I took on my first project, and it taught me the things tutorials don’t: how to stay organised and how to communicate.
- College
Posters, clubs and a title
Soon I was designing for the student clubs at college, with projects coming in on and off. The real struggle was the pen tool in Photoshop, and anyone who has fought it knows exactly what I mean. In my final year I became General Secretary, and that is when I started wearing more than one hat.
- Design school
Learning the why
I went on to study visual communication and finally understood the reasons behind things I had been doing by instinct. I finished my final year with an A. The Treebo project on this site comes from that year.
- Startup
A year of shipping fast
Then came a year at a startup. It taught me how to get things out of the door, and it showed me where I wanted my work to go next.
- Now
Work that means something
Alhamdulillah, today I make reels, websites and campaigns in the Islamic media space, for brands like Eman Channel and Eman Legacy. The work brings me closer to my deen while I do it. I still try a new tool most weeks, and I still care more about the idea than the software.
