See all our clientsHow do we start a project?
Send us a brief with the form at the bottom of this page. A few lines are enough: what you want to make, who it is for and when you need it. We reply within two working days.
What happens after we send a brief?
We reply within two working days. Once we understand what you need, we send a proposal and a budget built around it.
How much does a corporate video or an event cost in Dubai?
It depends on the scope: for a film, the length, locations, crew and post-production; for an event, the venue, the number of guests and what has to be built. Send us a brief and we will come back with a proposal and a budget built around what you need.
How far ahead should we get in touch?
As early as you can. Tell us your date and we will tell you honestly what is possible in the time.
Can you work alongside our in-house team or agency?
Yes. We work as an extension of our clients’ teams, in the role your project needs: creative direction, production partner, executive production or technical lead.
Can the same team run our event and film it?
Yes. Film production and event management sit under one roof at 11vent, so you can brief us once for the event and the film or content that comes out of it.
02.Film & video production
What kinds of films and videos do you make?
Brand films and commercials, corporate films, documentaries, short films and series, sports and broadcast production, and motion and campaign content.
See Film & ContentDo you produce corporate videos?
Yes. Corporate video production in Dubai is part of our brand film and documentary work: films that tell your company’s story, its products or its history, made for your website, social channels, events or screens.
Do you produce TV commercials?
Yes. We produce high-end commercials that tell a brand’s story, from the concept, treatment and script through the shoot to the final grade and delivery.
What kinds of documentaries do you make?
Documentaries that explore meaningful stories, cultural heritage, corporate histories and social issues, produced in the UAE.
Do we need a permit to film in Dubai?
Shoots in public places in Dubai need a filming permit, and it has to be requested through a UAE-licensed production company. We apply for the permits on your behalf and take care of the other approvals the shoot needs.
Do you offer post-production on footage we already have?
Yes. We take on post-production by itself: video editing, colour grading, sound design and visual effects, for footage we shot or footage you bring.
Do you create motion graphics?
Yes. Motion graphics, creative design and campaign content, either inside a film or on their own, so your story looks the same across screens and spaces.
Do you produce videos in Arabic?
Yes. We produce films and videos in Arabic, in English and in other languages, and in the dialect or accent your audience speaks, so the voice-over, the cast and the script sound local to the people watching.
Can you deliver the film in different languages and formats?
Yes. One film can be delivered in several languages, dialects or accents, and in the formats each channel needs: social, web, broadcast or the big screen at your event. Both are agreed at the start, around where the film will be shown.
03.Event management
What kinds of events do you manage?
Conferences and summits, ceremonies and launches, activations and exhibitions, and sports and corporate events, in Dubai, across the UAE and beyond.
See Events & ExperiencesWhat does event management include?
The concept and guest journey; venue and capacity planning, suppliers, logistics, registration, accreditation and protocol; then fabrication, staging, technical coordination, rehearsal and run of show, with on-site management from arrival to close.
How do you plan a corporate event in Dubai?
In three stages. First the concept and the guest journey, from invitation to exit. Then planning and coordination: venue, suppliers, logistics, registration and protocol, with every responsibility assigned. Then the build and the day itself: fabrication, staging, rehearsal and on-site management.
Do you organise conferences and summits?
Yes. We organise conferences and summits in Dubai and across the UAE, from the venue and speakers’ stage to registration, accreditation and the run of show.
Do you handle guest registration and accreditation?
Yes. Registration, accreditation and protocol are part of how we plan events, so guests, speakers, staff and media each get the right access. We ran registration and accreditation for the UAE University Games.
Do you organise product launches and award ceremonies?
Yes. Ceremonies and launches are one of our core event types, award ceremonies included: we produced the awards ceremony for the UAE University Games.
See the UAE University GamesDo you build exhibition stands and branded environments?
Yes. Fabrication and branded environments are part of our event production, for exhibitions, activations and launches, planned alongside the staging and the guest journey.
Can you help us find a venue?
Yes. Venue and capacity planning is part of event management: we plan the space around your guests, the stage, the screens and the way people move.
Do you handle event permits and venue approvals?
Yes. We apply for the permits and venue approvals your event needs, alongside the rest of the planning.
Do you design the event before it is built?
Yes. Stage, screens, seating and the way people move are all designed in 3D before anything is built.
