What I'm looking for

Ideally, I want to collaborate with forward-thinking teams that value creative experimentation, push the boundaries of visual storytelling, and embrace innovative technologies like AI to streamline production.

Hey there! I'm Samin Mehdizadeh, a multidisciplinary creative and creative director based in Tehran. I love bringing ideas to life across digital and traditional media, combining hands-on design and animation expertise with strong team leadership.

A bit about my background:

Recently, I've been working as a part-time content creator for Like it Global in Sweden, where I independently handle all video editing and blend real footage with AI-generated visuals.
Before that, I spent time as the lead designer and creative manager for GR8 Real Estate & Lifestyle across Spain and UAE, leading web, app, social media, and architectural design projects while managing creative teams and recruitment.
I’ve also worked as a visual designer for Farsi Food Industry Holding in Iran and spent years as a senior 2D animator, character designer, and color department lead on fantastic animation projects like The Last Fiction and works for BabyTV and Al Jazeera.
