Curiosity is
the constant.

Senior Graphic Producer. Broadcast designer. Maker of immersive worlds and AI-assisted stories.

Portrait of Shafqat Abidi

I've spent more than twenty years translating complex ideas into visuals people can feel. Newsrooms taught me to move quickly and think clearly. New tools keep opening up new ways to tell a story.

Today my work spans broadcast design, real-time graphics, virtual production and AI-led filmmaking. The common thread is a belief that technology works best when it follows a human point of view.

Built across
many screens.
