Abbas Albadri, a Creative & Advertising Director and Visual Communication Expert with more than 18 years of experience in media, design, and advertising. I hold a Master’s degree in Graphic Design, and I specialize in brand identity, 2D/3D motion graphics, animation, and creative direction. As the Founder & CEO of Sketch Iraq, I lead a creative team that produces high-quality visual content for local and international brands. My work focuses on blending strong communication with thoughtful design to create visuals that are clear, meaningful, and engaging. Over the years, I’ve collaborated with major brands and helped shape their visual direction through advertising, animation, and storytelling. I also train emerging designers through intensive workshops to supporting new talent and sharing practical experience from the industry. In addition, I have published academic research in the field of interactive UI/UX design. I believe design is more than visuals it’s a form of storytelling that connects brands with people, builds emotion, and leaves a lasting impression.
