Director | Creative Producer
Every image, angle, word and color,
contribute to telling a powerful story.
Production
Whether you are looking to create a short film, a promotional video, a corporate story, or a live show, I bring your idea to life from concept development to implementation. I will advise you on the script, assemble a creative team, and manage the planning and scheduling of the production, all within your budget and delivered on time. I am an all-in-one producer with multifaceted skills. Check out my work here.
Writer & Director
As much as I enjoy being a producer, my talent extends beyond the logistics of it all. I often find myself getting involved in the script and treatment of a film. I am a storyteller at heart. I write stories that have a lasting impact and move people. My focus as a director is create a look and feel that is authentic to the story, and focus on working with actors that can bring the characters to life. Check out my work here.

“I worked with Faten in the preparation for TEDxAmsterdam 2016, and she really was a pleasure to work with. One of our speakers came from Syria and we needed a coach to help him with his story. With a very tight deadline Faten managed to make him ready for public speaking, crafting his story and training him on story telling. The result was absolutely wonderful. I can warmly recommend her.”

“Faten worked with me to produce the network's flagship daily talk show. Her communication skills and self-motivation made her stand out among her peers with similar job titles. I was amused by her impressive ability to foster cross-departmental collaboration to enrich the content we produced while sparing no effort in breaking up the communication silos that often plague large corporations.”
