High-End Corporate Video Production for Sharjah Asset Management
High-end corporate video production for Sharjah Asset Management (SAM), the investment arm of the Government of Sharjah, was developed to reflect the organization’s scale, vision, and strategic impact. Managing a diversified portfolio across infrastructure, transportation, utilities, real estate, and industrial sectors, SAM plays a key role in driving economic diversification, attracting foreign investment, and strengthening Sharjah’s position as a regional business hub through sustainable, long-term growth strategies.
As part of this vision, SAM initiated a premium three-part executive interview series designed as a high-end corporate video experience to showcase its leadership, innovation, and strategic direction. Moving beyond traditional formats, the series embraces cinematic, storytelling-led content to communicate the organization’s values and forward-thinking approach with clarity and impact.
Following the success of our earlier films with Sharjah Asset Management (SAM), the client sought something fresh, playful, and visually striking for their next corporate commercial — a creative film that would represent the life and energy of their new headquarters in a way that felt modern, imaginative, and human-centred.
Instead of a conventional interview-style video, the idea was to tell the story through an animated office chair moving around the building — exploring spaces, reflecting the vibrancy and design of the workspace, and symbolising SAM’s culture of innovation and progress.
The project required mixing live action and CGI techniques seamlessly. The story revolved around an inanimate object as the sole character, meaning movement, lighting, and pacing had to carry emotion without dialogue or human presence.
We also had to:
• Custom-fabricate a real moving chair rig that could roll in one single orientation for consistency.
• Use practical effects like fishing lines and precise choreography to “puppet” movement safely on set.
• Match all physical chair movements with CGI enhancement and compositing in post-production.
• Maintain a high-end cinematic polish under corporate brand guidelines.
As experts in video production in Dubai, we conceptualized, scripted, and delivered the film from the ground up. The creative direction was sleek, cinematic, and storytelling-driven — the chair itself became the protagonist.
Our process included:
• Concept creation and scripting
• Cinematic storyboard and mock-up testing
• Set and lighting design planning
• Custom chair fabrication with specialized alignment rig
• CGI pre-visualization and movement mapping
• Filmed on ARRI camera system for dynamic range and visual clarity
• Controlled motion rigs and fish-string practical effects
• Advanced lighting setups for reflections and realism
• Crew of 10 — with dedicated rig operator & VFX supervisor on set
• Integration of CGI and live-action sequences
• Color grading for bright, modern visual identity
• Layered SFX and music for an immersive experience
• Logo animation + cinematic finishing master
Bringing an inanimate object to life required attention to rhythm and movement. Every tilt, stop, and turn had to feel intentional. The chair’s “exploration” through SAM HQ became a metaphor for workplace innovation — silent, elegant, and full of motion. The combination of technical precision and creative direction transformed a simple idea into an award-worthy visual statement.
The resulting film blended corporate storytelling with cinematic flair, instantly becoming one of SAM’s most memorable creative campaigns. The client loved the final narrative concept, praising its originality and high-end execution. The film was later showcased at internal events, exhibitions, and online platforms, receiving recognition for its creativity and production value.
