Film Director in Dubai

Architectural film in Dubai, directing film and videography for developers, architecture practices, and hospitality and cultural brands. Recent work includes the Noir Matière film at Lana Residences and Orangebox Villa, selected for the Psarokokalo International Short Film Festival 2025.

Named Work

The Noir Matière film was made alongside the stills at Lana Residences, Dorchester Collection, treating the apartment's darkness the same way the photography does: natural light only, held for the moments when the space actually reveals itself.

Orangebox Villa, a residence built around a circular water court, was filmed and selected for the Psarokokalo International Short Film Festival 2025, a festival dedicated specifically to architecture and design film.

How a Film Is Directed

The moving image is treated the way the stills are: planned around when the building actually takes light, built from a walkthrough rather than improvised on the day. A building that photographs well at a certain hour usually films well at the same hour, for the same reason.

Direction, cinematography and edit are handled as one process, so a client is not briefing a photographer and a separate filmmaker on the same building twice.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Noir Matière film at Lana Residences, and the Orangebox Villa film, selected for the Psarokokalo International Short Film Festival 2025.
Both, and the distinction matters. The film is directed, not just captured: the idea, the sequence, and the shot plan are decided first, then filmed and finished. An architect-trained film director reads the building the way the stills do and builds the film around it.
Architectural and development films: developer launch pieces, brand films for architecture and design practices, hospitality films, and cultural and institutional work. Directed architectural film has been produced for NEOM and KAFD, and film work has been festival-selected.
Yes, and it is the efficient way to commission. Motion and medium format stills are captured together so a campaign gets one consistent visual language across film and print from a single directed shoot rather than two disconnected ones.
