    Hey I must say you are doing a whole lot of good.
    I am very focused Advertising Designer with 4 years of experience in McCANN ERICKSON LAGOS & LOWE LINTAS in Nigeria. I’m ready to take my creative expertise and adventure to the middle east, where I believe it is all happening right now. I have worked great accounts with a good portfolio to show for it.

    I have amiable skills in Photoshop and Illustrator. I also possess new-age copywriring skills. Is there any way you can help me with a good job with reasonably good pay in Dubai…..I have a degree in Fine & Applied Arts from the highly acclaimed University of Nigeria.

    Thanks. I willl be greatly obliged.

    I’ll be in Dubai in december as a speaker for a new media conference. I really hope to meet recruiters over there :)

  5. Denis Eugene Arackal August 11, 2008 at 8:51 am #

    New media is getting much attention lately. As you are coming directly to Mediacity, it wont be a problem for you to meet the recruiters.

  6. Philippe August 13, 2008 at 8:30 am #

    I’m not sure I’ll be in Mediacity. I think the location will be: http://www.dicec.ae/Default_en_gb.aspx

    But I hope some mediacity people will attend the event :)

    Could you please enlist advertising agencies in Dubai? I’m a copywriter working here and currently looking for a better company.

  13. Denis Eugene Arackal October 14, 2008 at 4:12 pm #

    What you can do effectively is that visit http://abcbusinesspages.com/index.php and select the advertising agencies from the list. You will get fax numbers and phone numbers. This will come really handy. While sending resume, please write a smart subjectline that will make them read your mail(I know you know this already as a copywriter).

    Almost all the good agencies are here. To be frank, as far as i know, to get good assignments will be a challenge in the beginning. But slowly you can pick up. Making money is easy after that.

I still have not met here a hardcore animation guy who works for a PIXAR type of company. The average salary depends on the company but the guys i know get 12,000 Dhs to 14,000 Dhs with around 3yrs exp.

  22. Denis Eugene Arackal November 30, 2008 at 5:32 pm #

    Mani, i don’t want to give you wrong information. If you want to be a model in UAE, it is better that you come here and try. It may be difficult to find a place here by trying from INDIA. Your starting period may be a bit tough if you are not very lucky,but slowly you can pick up. But in this volatile industry, luck plays a huge part. My wishes.

  23. BALA December 3, 2008 at 6:37 pm #

    HI

  24. Denis Eugene Arackal December 4, 2008 at 4:02 pm #

    Dear Bala,
    If you are working in international projects, then for whom are you working? Are already working for a multinational company?
    Animation is a growing field in UAE. With around 4-6 yrs experience you can make it into a reputable company. But you know, this too depends on many factors.My wishes!
