Ahmed Osama A.: I am a young Egyptian director. I was born and raised in Cairo, Egypt, and have lived a very traditional, but modern life, with many stories rising from it. I was inspired by the world of art from a very young age, beginning at about age seven. Cartoons, sketching, and drawing influenced me to create, so I did. I was creating my own cartoons and sketches all throughout grade and high school, which led me to question: “Is there more than this?” I always wanted more art, more challenges, there was never enough. I finally found my calling in high school: I began directing, writing, and even drawing my comic books. Soon after, my artistic inspiration led me to apply to the Higher Institute of Applied Arts in Egypt in attempts to get my BA in Applied Arts. I was accepted, and sure enough, I followed my plans and exceeded expectations. I did study applied arts, as planned, but also grew curious of other fields such as: Fine Arts, and Painting. Basically, I got to know various fields of art step by step from something so basic as sketching. This is a prime example that inspiration is found in the strangest places.
