'''Yehya Antoun Saade''' was known as a controversial director.
Yehya Antoun Saade<ref name="Bilmersad magazine online">[http://www.bilmersad.com/ourarticles/41-3rdeye/915-3rdeye-yehya-saade.html العين الثالثة - في ذكرى الأربعين لرحيله، ما حقيقة مقتل المخرج يحيى سعادة؟ ,اليان الحاج ]</ref> known as a [[controversial]] young [[director]]; who created a [[revolutionary]] [[movement]] in the [[visual arts]], [[film]] and [[music]] [[industry]] driven by his [[philosophy]] in [[life]] and his [[Surrealist]] spirit.
== Early life ==
Born on May 18th 1975 <ref name="bisara7a online newspaper">[http://www.bisara7a.com/#!ajax_readnews.php?id=5220 في ذكرى ميلاده، محبّو المخرج الراحل يحيا سعادة يحتفلون به، ونحن نشاركهم العيد, علاء مرعب ]</ref> in the [[village]] of [[Zouk Mikael]],[[Lebanon]] - [[Middle East]]. [[Father]] Antoun Saleh Saade, [[mother]] Saad El Rajaa Magid El Hachem Saade; [[sisters]] Iman and Nidal.
Though Yehya is well known as a [[music video director]], his [[work]] is a [[visual]] [[combination]] of philosophy, [[vision]] and [[messages]].
During his first year, and due to the [[Lebanese war]]; Yehya moved with his [[family]] to [[Cyprus]]. His parent's [[political]] [[background]] contributed in his revolutionary attitude and general philosophy in life.<ref>Micheal, Sabee. "يحيا سعادة عريس الابداع", Aldiyar daily newspaper, Lebanon, 03 july 2011.</ref>

Since his [[childhood]], Yehya proved his [[creativity]] in the [[artistic]] [[world]], combined with a [[love]] for life and [[exploring]] the world. In his [[early]] years Yehya showed a love for [[drawing]] and [[painting]].
In Cyprus Yehya studied in Saint Mary's [[Catholic]] [[school]], and then moved to Green Hills a Lebanese [[management]] school.
Yehya's family moved back to Lebanon in 1985, to live in [[Ras Beirut]]; since due to political reasons they could not go back to their [[hometown]].

During his [[childhood]] Yehya's talents were directed to drawing and painting, in 1992 he moved back to his hometown in [[Zouk Mikael]], and studied [[interior design]].
During his first year, and due to the [[Lebanese war]];{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}} Yehya moved with his family to [[Cyprus]].
During this [[period]] he met his [[dancing]] [[teacher]] Sami Khoury while playing the role of the [[poet]] Abou Chabke<ref name="Poet From Lebanon">[http://onefineart.com/en/artists/abouchabk/ Elias Abou Chabke, poet from lebanon]</ref> in a play presented by the local village club "Animation Sporting Club". His [[passion]] for [[dancing]] and [[body language]] grew and he joined the dance group Hayakel, where he spent 9 years with Sami khoury exploring the world of theater and body expression.
After getting his degree in Interior Design, Yehya enrolled in the [[Lebanese University]] in Furn El Shebak<ref name="http://wikimapia.org">[http://wikimapia.org/4653750/Furn-el-Chebbak-municipality Furn el Shebbak municipality]</ref> to continue his studies. At university Yehya stood out as a creative and talented student, yet he refused to be bounded by class walls and limitations of rules. A world out there was waiting for him to explore. So, during the last year of university he decided that it was time to move on.
His dancing [[career]] helped him [[discover]] and [[appreciate]] the human body; believing in our right to love, [[respect]], [[express]], and [[share]] the [[beauty]] of our [[soul]]’s [[sanctuary]], during his [[university]] years, he agreed to pose as a [[model]] for students studying [[plastic]] [[art]].


In Cyprus Yehya studied in Saint Mary's Catholic school, and then moved to Green Hills Lebanese management school.{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}
== Career ==
Once again a [[renaissance]] of [[vision]], [[colors]], [[harmony]], and [[unity]] of [[image]] developed into a [[concept]], Yehya the [[art director]], taking his first [[professional]] steps. It was once said that before Yehya Saade the [[local]] [[market]] had not yet heard of [[Art Direction]], some even said he was the first to [[establish]] art direction in the [[Middle East]].<ref name="http://www.bisara7a.com/#!ajax_readnews.php?id=91">[http://www.bisara7a.com/#!ajax_readnews.php?id=91 يحيا سعادة لـ "بصراحة" : هيفا تبقى هيفا، ميريم فارس عنيدة ،نوال الزغبي كلاس وأحب كارول صقر , Micheal Lagausis ]</ref>


Yehya's family moved back to Lebanon in 1985, to live in [[Ras Beirut]] since due to political reasons they could not go back to their hometown.
His [[art direction]], started as [[bold]] [[participation]] in [[fashion]] [[shows]], [[photo shoots]] and [[theatrical]] [[shows]]; until he moved to the film industry.
During his childhood Yehya's talents were directed to drawing and painting, in 1992 he moved back to his hometown in zouk mikael, and studied [[interior design]]
Yehya always says “I want to be the best in what I do. I want to be number 1”. Yehya's input in the [[industry]] proved to be a turning point for this art.
During this period he met his dancing teacher Sami Khoury while playing the role of the [[poet]] Abou Chabke in a play presented by the local village club "Animation Sporting [[Club]] ".{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}
He worked with pan arab [[directors]], [[artists]], [[fashion designers]] and [[international]] [[clientele]].

== By Yehya Saade ==
Yehya’s signature is [[obvious]] in all his [[accomplishment]]; viewers know it is a Yehya Saade [[vision]], his images carry his spirit, [[philosophy]] and [[fantasia]] in one visual combination that says art directed by Yehya Saade.
Again Yehya decided it was time to move on when he directed his first music video for Rahma<ref name="http://www.youtube.com">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yClC19kylQI Rahma video clip, Titled Ana We Enta, By Yehya saade]</ref>, an [[Egyptian]] [[singer]].


After getting his degree in Interior Design, Yehya enrolled in the Lebanese [[University]] in Furn El Shebakto continue his studies.{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}
Following this [[experience]], Yehya waited a couple of years, during which he continued to work as an [[art director]]. He says "I love art direction and will always do it”.
Aware that he could not [[spread]] his [[philosophy]] in [[life]] and make his voice heard, through art directing for other [[directors]]. Yehya continues his journey. “I speak the [[language]] of the new [[generation]], and I know they will understand” he says. The [[opportunity]] presented itself in a song for Amal Hijazi, titled [[Baya al Ward]]<ref name="http://www.youtube.com">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF3Z61d823I Amal Hijazi Music Video, Titled Baya al Ward, By Yehya Saade]</ref>: a song that Yehya says “ The song touched my soul, and said a lot for me”.


== Career ==
The [[music]] [[video]] though a [[hit]], was very [[controversial]] and bold for the [[society]]. He was harshly attacked and criticized. This gave Yehya more [[persistence]] to move on, create his own style, and insist on spreading his believes.
He worked with panarab directors, artists, fashion designers and international clientèle.{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}
Yehya believes in no [[boundaries]], and that [[human]] [[feeling]] should be expressed and [[taboos]] should be discussed.<ref name="Rosa online magazine">[http://www.rosaonline.net/Weekly/News.asp?id=33528يحيى سعادة : نعم أنا صادم، وأتحدى أي شخص أن العرى الذي أقدمه مبتذل Tarek Mostafa, Dec 12, 2009]</ref>.


Saade directed his first music video for Rahma, an Egyptian singer.
With every [[project]], [[criticism]] rose, [[scandals]] fabricated, conservative shouts exploded. Yehya’s answer was “today’s problems cannot be erased by yesterday’s solutions”<ref name="Elaph online">[http://www.elaph.com/Web/arts/2010/3/544460.html Interviewer: May Elias Date: March 20, 2010 رسالتي أكبر من إستيعاب سمية الخشاب]</ref><ref name="Elaph online - yehya saade">[http://www.elaph.com/ElaphWeb/media/newmedia.aspx?name=YehyaSaade Interviewer: May Elias Date: March 20, 2010 يحيا سعادة: لست خياطاً ولا أكثر إباحية من سيمون أسمر ]</ref>

"It is time to break the [[silence]], the [[wind]] of [[change]] must storm, and a new [[vibe]] will [[rule]] the [[world]] that will openly discuss the future [[generation]]’s needs".
The [[press]] which once attacked and criticized his work started [[debating]] the [[ideas]] he presented.<ref name="Bisara7a Online Magazine">[http://www.bisara7a.com/#!ajax_readnews.php?id=651 المخرج يحيي سعادة شاذ وجريء ويحبّ السيد حسن نصرالله , July 07, 2010]</ref>

people came around and the [[generation]] he spoke to listened. More people understood the messages and [[depth]] of his [[work]]. It was a [[pleasure]] to find [[people]] [[defending]] his work and [[interpreting]] it.
