Abdullah Oğuz was born in Istanbul in 1958. He graduated from the Faculty of Economic and Administrative Science at Marmara University. He founded ANS International in New York in 1983. The “videolog” system he developed for a mail-order company generated 65% more revenue than the traditional print catalogue. This pioneering marketing concept took its place on the cover of The Wall Street Journal.
He then founded ANS International Turkey in 1992. ANS International raised the bar for Turkish TV programming, bringing thousands of hours of quality programs to Turkish TV channels as well as creating original dramas and game shows in house. In addition to his identity as a versatile producer, Oğuz has established himself as a unique director by almost single-handedly creating the music video industry, winning a number of international awards. He has also become one of the most sought-after commercial directors. In 2003, ANS entered the national film market, producing four feature-length films, two of them becoming the highest grossing films out of a total of 134 released features. Oğuz directed one of these films, called “The Ivy Mansion-Life”, which was the continuation of a record-breaking hit TV series, and became the highest grossing film of 2003. He has received numerous awards including Human Rights Award from European Council in Strasbourg and Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Music, Best Sound Design and Best Make-up prizes in the Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival.
