DRC – Racing is Life
A rare falcon, the Sheikh's Arabian horses and one of a kind racing camels are only a few of the things that makes this an epic ad. Dealing with these animals over the course of 5 days was no easy task, though. Director Henri Barges had the patience of a saint while the two horses were falling in love at first sight on set.Aside from it's top of the notch cast, a tremendous amount of hard work and effort that has gone into the production and post production. We were thrilled when Laser Films commissioned us to work with them on this. No doubt it's going to spread like wildfire across the region.

Etisalat – A Smile A Day
Whether you’re a shopaholic, foodie, movie buff or adventurer - getting rewarded for doing the things you love has never been easier. Alongside Caviar Creative and Director Dax Martinez-Vargas, we spent 3 days capturing the experience of living a day in the life of Etisalat’s ‘Smiles’ scheme members.Because the yellow heads were so big, the cast found it difficult to look anywhere below eye length. This lead to re-shooting the fist-bump scene 27 TIMES because they kept missing each other. It was entertaining, to say the least.

Atlantis – A World Away From Your Everyday
Life is too short. Break away from the ordinary and experience a parallel world of relaxation, adventure and fun in this TVC we produced for Atlantis the Palm. Anders Fousman, director of this shoot, took the leap of faith and faced his fear of heights by jumping on Atlantis's most terrifying rides – all in the name of creating a flawless story. He wanted to personally understand how to capture the experience in the realest way possible.Hours were spent waiting for sharks to enter the right camera frame, and our camera drone danced through a maze of lasers at Nasimi to make sure no damage would be caused to the lense. All of this would not have been possible without a fantastic team. Everyone made the communication work and the final production exceeded our expectations in quality and entertainment.
