Hi.
My name is Baroosh. I’m a creative with 7+ years of experience developing multi-platform brand campaigns. I work as a hybrid, i.e. while I lean towards art direction, I also write.
Here's a list of things I bring to the table when working on a project with you!
Concept development: A mentor once told me to kill off the first 20 ideas that come to mind because they're the same as everyone else's. I have ignored that advice many times. But when I do decide to follow it, it gives me the ability to shape a tiny little thought into a full-blown-multi-faceted creative experience. And some ads.
Art & Design: Before art direction, I worked in graphic design, so I value craft as much as ideas. The fun is in approaching projects with solutions that aren't just beautiful, but also work well in terms of user experience, functionality and how they make someone feel.
Multi-media approach: After working on a ton of (unfinished...?) projects across photography, film, sound, and graphic design, I am not afraid to work with mediums that don't fall under my title. Instead, I use my understanding of each to bring ideas to life in an artful way. Also, I LOVE to write. Treatments, scripts, sad love stories. Especially sad love stories.
Unnecessary information: This and this creative director told me to change my photo to a picture of a thug for a more accurate representation of my personality. I can neither confirm nor deny if I am one IRL.
What next: Big thinking. Story telling. Film & Treatments. Pitch Work. Quick turn-around projects. Ideas that feel uncomfortable, but teams comfortable with an over thinker.
Please reach out if one or all fit what you’re looking for!
