Rashid is a filmmaker and producer of films. He is the co-author of Azerbaijani Animation (2018) and the creator of ANIMAFILM, Azerbaijan's first International Animation Festival. Rashid also specializes in animation and documentary film creation. Despite majoring in Film Studies, English Philology, Philosophy, and Film Producer, he believed that education was insufficient and that he needed to get experience. As a result, he assisted in a number of documentaries and feature films. He had new dreams after watching animated flicks. In a moment when he began to ponder on them, the book "Azerbaijan Animation," the ANIMAFILM International Animation Festival, and other ideas came to his mind.
For him one of the most crucial areas of art is animation. As a result, its advancement is critical and must be prioritized. He works as a group to expand this sector of art throughout the country.
