Gürkan Gürel

I’m a new gen creative director and undeterred dreamer, despite to my 10+ years of experience in communication!
 

After 6 years of work period with prominent communication experts of Turkey, I focused on the big picture and moved forward my career in online advertising, social media and digital communications. Obviously, no regrets came after my decision, when examining more than 100 awards I won in the last 5 years and the uncontainable victory of digital revolution itself. I try to write all of my ads and direct most of them. 

I love collaborating with artists, creatives, engineers, virtuosos as well as young local talents. I never saw data and researches as soul sucking creativity killers, contrarily; interpretation of data brings effectiveness to creativity according to me. After I get the brief, my process begins immediately with social listening for insights and ad hoc researches to ensure the creative approach.
