Usman Khan

@usmankhan20

I lead creative direction, VFX, and motion design for films, brands, and digital products.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to a dynamic organization that values creativity, innovation, and strategic thinking, where I can use communication, analysis, and problem-solving to deliver impactful results.

I've led creative direction and VFX for ICE Animations, Narsun Studios, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy Films, and Optimized Solutions. My work spans The Cloud City Metaverse, 3 Bahadur, Cartoon Network Arabia's Al-Mansour, and campaigns for PCB, NFL, KHAADI, DP World, and RIO.

I build visual languages, production pipelines, and high-impact campaigns from concept through delivery, working hands-on across design, compositing, animation, editing, and QA. I've also taught Digital Compositing at Iqra University and supervised 30+ commercials for global brands.
