This ambitious project is another attempt at combining universities together while also changing the narrative.
While using two vastly different universes,

one of them is real life and shot on film and the other one is in a video game.

Trying to prove that all media tells a story no matter what

Media: The Walking Dead, The Last of us
Montage: Saleem Zwaid

A project about the fundamentals of Arabic music clips.
This video was shot all within one night.

But it took months of planning getting equipment, personnel, and props.

I helped with planning, production, location, and chose the song.

Song: لي بتقصر تنورة

This stand up reportage is about subverting the standards and challenging the fundamentals of reportages in general.
To me, they are a very important educational tool, but often I see people get bored of them, so I tried to make it more fun.

A project about adapting a book into a trailer before attempting it into a movie or a show.

In my personal opinion, this is a good marketing idea for two things either getting people to buy your book or getting a better pitch to Studios to adapt your book into a movie or show.

An anti racism awareness project, but instead of being boring and feeling like you’re sitting in a lecture, we make it like a social experiment or a prank for it to be entertaining.

Basically the main message is that if you see someone from another culture and they approach you, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they mean you any harm.

A horror short that is more focused on the buildup than the actual jump, scare at the end, basically the fundamentals of buildup 101.

Another attempt at making a book trailer, but this time it’s very ambitious, months of planning, preparing and gathering cast, equipment and props.
Shot over the period of a week.

For this project, everyone on the team participated in the montage process, the filming, set up and the directing.

This project was the idea of going back to that past the basics of advertisement, highlighting, the prestige that old things bring and how things were built to last in the past

An ambitious project about bringing back what was good about advertisements.

No more of those Talking Heads that tell you some new place opened or some brand is good just because someone paid them money.

This is more about getting an emotional reaction from the viewer something that will bond them to the brand in their subconscious.

For me, this is the most effective way to advertise to someone, tapping into the subconscious.

An advertisement for a tourism agency in Saudi Arabia


This was a planned approach to shatter the illusion of the audience, they think Saudi Arabia is empty and uninterest so we compare it to the most interesting country in the eyes of tourists
