Last Updated on April 9, 2025

Saygın Yıldırım has been on the move since childhood. Born in Sinop (Ayancık) on Turkey’s northern Black Sea coast, he grew up traveling and documenting life around him—naturally gravitating toward visual storytelling. He studied Cinema and Television at Kocaeli University and started working in media when he was 18 years old.

Over the years, Saygın built a versatile career in English-language broadcasting, most notably spending over seven years at TRT World, where he produced travel shows, cultural features, and international content. He also trained international journalists in editing and visual storytelling, becoming a respected mentor in the newsroom.

A full-package media professional, Saygın handles every step of production—from filming with drones and cameras to editing with all professional editing softwares. He created content for platforms like TRT and American media companies.

In 2022, Saygın moved to Madrid, Spain, where he earned his TEFL certification and taught English to Spanish learners, further deepening his international experience. At the same time, he traveled and produced for his digital platforms as well as for other companies as a freelancer.

Today, he creates cinematic YouTube documentaries and engaging Reels that reveal Turkey’s depth and beauty from a local perspective. Whether he’s soaring above Istanbul with a drone or filming remote villages, Saygın’s work invites viewers to explore Turkey in a meaningful, authentic way.
