Osman Al Ahnaf

About

A studio of one, with the range of five.

I’m Osman Al Ahnaf. I edit video, design brands, draw typefaces, and write essays about the intersections between them. I’ve been treating those crafts as one job since 2020.

My work leans cinematic — long lenses in the metaphor, patient cuts in the edit, and a color palette I refuse to apologize for. I take on a handful of projects a year, mostly for film studios, record labels and independent founders who care about how their work feels before it functions.

If you’re looking for someone to just execute a shot list, we’re not a fit. If you want the edit, the type, the poster and the writing to sound like the same voice — say hello.
