Hatim Islam Abou — Timo

The vision

I am a post-producer in the fullest sense. Editing, graphics, sound, picture, music composition: I speak the language of every craft, which is what lets me lead post-productions that involve whole teams. I learned on analogue before moving to digital; today I master the most complex node-based systems and bring AI into every stage, from the first rushes to broadcast.

Telling the story of institutions and know-how.

aCorporate films — directed end to end

From the shoot to post-production, all the way to final delivery.

bInternal & event videos

Edits built from royalty-free footage and company archives — to refresh a brand’s imagery, bring its events to life, or support explainer screenings abroad.

cMotion design

Animations, infographics and explainer films that make a programme, an offer or an organisation easy to understand.

VFX hook · AI

It is a promotional spot for social media, but it is also a hook: the first seconds, built with VFX and artificial intelligence, that stop the scroll. A premium effect can make the difference from the very opening of an ad — and that is what this video, made for MG, shows.

Awareness campaign · AI

“Ne vends pas ta voix” (“Don’t sell your voice”) is an awareness campaign, scripted and generated by me in partnership with Rachid El Idrissi. The post-production, the image generation, the sound and the music: everything is done by me.

AI creation

AI filmmaking.

AI-generated characters, sets and effects, woven into real films under my art direction.
