“I had the pleasure of working with Kareem on a shoot for one of our major clients. He went above and beyond and delivered a high quality end product. His dedication along with his eye for detail, positive attitude, and creative insight makes him a great asset and a superb choice to work with.”
About
Kareem is an accomplished Creative Strategist, Marketer and award winning Director / Cinematographer. For over a decade Kareem has brought together his vast network of connections to create creative projects worldwide and has since filmed on every continent including Antarctica and in over 80 different countries.
Kareem's diverse skill set has earned him a reputation in the industry as the Swiss Army Knife of content creation. With over a decade of experience in commercial video production, his resourcefulness, creativity and passion for storytelling has allowed him to engage in every step of project development, from concept to execution.
Kareem's work as a Director, Producer, and Director of Photography has been at the heart of numerous award-winning campaigns for high-profile brands including Honda, Acura, KFC, Taco Bell, RBC, YMCA, and many more.
Swell drives action through strategic consumer engagement. Strategy and creative is at the core of what we create by bringing together seasoned professionals, augmenting your marketing team and quickly scaling to your needs saving you time and money.
Outside of the office (and sometimes inside the office), Kareem is a comedy writer and performer. He will likely beat you at movie trivia (though we welcome you to challenge him anyway) and we do not recommend you bring up Star Wars around him unless you have at least an hour to spare.
Although he wears many hats, they're usually just metaphorical, so you'll have no trouble being able to recognize him by his curly hair.
