Hey there.

I have never actually written a comprehensive journal. So here it goes...

The last Journal entry dates back to Feb 2, 2006, A complete year back. Well through out this year. I have been really busy with work, family life and my kid. My kid had to start school last year. I switched 2 jops. First landing into MTV Pakistan after leaving Interflow and TVOne, where I found out that we Pakistani's love to take up an extremely amazing thing and screw it up.
That was not only the reason to leave MTV. The franchise of MTV is owned by Indus TV NEtwork. Which is know for being the poorest and taking things for granted type of organization plus they never pay on time. So once I got this offer to head the creative department (2D/3D) at Recorder Television Network (AAJ ( [link] ) / PLAY ( [link] )), I had to switch the company. Here at AAJ and PLAY, one feels that he is part of an organization, where there are more benefits that the salary alone. Besides the salary is always on time..

Leaving MTV was not easy, as I felt that I was most comfortable there, but for reason besides self satisfaction, if you are in my shoes, you have to consider, better pay and comfort for you and your family.

More NEWS is that I am planning to relaunch PAKBEAT. Now as a Digital Magazine and I am also working on a Graphic based music video of Aamir Zaki Called Universal Kiss.

Further, I am also involving myself with Commerical direction, so hopefully you will be hearing a lot more from my side then ever.

Take it easy.

and Happy SPRING
