I am Nahid. An animation director, motion designer, and visual storyteller based in the Netherlands. I get inspired by daily life moments and use them in animation to enrich my stories. I see potential in my surroundings, which I use in my work like adding spice to food. I make the best of everything that's happening around me and I take all the chances I get. I want to evoke various emotions and feelings when it comes to demonstrating everyday life moments, and put my audience through unusual experiences and journeys. I want to make them conscious of their surroundings and presence. The moments of stillness, calmness, and presence.
​
I want to make the little moments in life special.
