Freelancing in London as a conceptual senior art director
My name is Toufic Beyhum and I'm a conceptual creative with over 13 years experience in advertising. I have worked for Leo Burnett, McCann, BBDO as well as other smaller agencies around the world. I have won several awards for my concepts and contributed often to winning new business. I am currently freelancing as a conceptual art director for Getty Images in London and my 6 months contract will end in mid July. When I'm not being creative in agencies I get involved in other forms of creativity such as photography - I published a book while I was in Berlin - and I am currently working on a documentary that I shot with a colleague in Petra, Jordan.
ps. Thats a shot of me on a Getty shoot with photographer Justin Lambert.

About me
My name is Toufic Beyhum, born in 1974. I am a creative director with over 12 years of International experience in advertising: I have art directed over 30 tvcs (not happy with most due to too many chefs) & possibly over 100 still shoots (happy with most, fewer chefs) , I contributed towards winning a lot of new business & won a few gold, silver & bronze awards. I am also a very keen self-taught photographer; I took a year off in 2003 and went traveling around the world with me, myself & my cameras (see photography). I published a photography book in 2007 called "Emotions in Motion", you can find the book in most bookshops or you can always order a signed copy from me. I opened & ran a gallery in Berlin called FEN, the gallery specialised in contemporary Middle Eastern artists and was open for 2 years. The website is still going, have a look at www.fen-art.com.
I have also recently shot a documentary on the Bedouins of Petra and how their culture has been affected by tourism, the documentary is called After Tomorrw and is currently in post production.
