Video production in Jeddah
Nexel produces brand films, event coverage, photography and drone footage in Jeddah — a two-hour flight from Dammam — with one crew across multi-city campaigns and permits filed for the Corniche, Al-Balad and the Red Sea locations that make Jeddah content look like Jeddah.
The brief from here
Jeddah is the Kingdom's consumer-brand and hospitality capital, and its briefs are visual: retail and F&B launches, hotel and resort films, Jeddah Season and festival coverage, and lifestyle content shot against the Red Sea. Production here is about atmosphere — golden-hour Corniche, the coral-stone lanes of Al-Balad, the waterfront at night — and about crews who can move fast in heat and crowds.
Venues and locations we work in
- Jeddah Superdome
- Jeddah Center for Forums & Events
- Jeddah Corniche and the Red Sea waterfront
- Al-Balad, the UNESCO-listed historic district
- King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC), an hour north
- Hotel ballrooms — Ritz-Carlton Jeddah, Hilton Jeddah, Park Hyatt
Permits and approvals
Drone work over the Corniche and the coast needs General Authority of Civil Aviation authorisation and Jeddah Municipality's location permission, with additional restrictions around the airport and port; Al-Balad's heritage status brings its own filming rules from the Ministry of Culture's heritage bodies. Jeddah Season and festival content is cleared through the event's own media office.
Crew, travel and timing
Director, camera, sound and drone crew fly from Dammam; larger lighting and grip packages are hired locally. Multi-city campaigns keep the same crew and creative lead through Dammam, Riyadh and Jeddah so the footage cuts together. Edit, grade and mix run in Dammam with same-week review links. Travel appears as its own line on the quote.

Questions clients ask
{03}01Can you shoot hotel and resort films on the Red Sea coast?
Yes. Property films, F&B content and drone establishing shots are core work; the location's permission and GACA authorisation for drones are filed ahead, and shoot days are planned around light and heat.
02Do you cover Jeddah Season and festival events?
Yes. Recap films, stage coverage and social edits, with accreditation and content approvals handled through the event's media office as part of the scope.
03How is a Jeddah shoot priced compared with Dammam?
The production scope is priced the same way — by crew, shoot days and post — with flights and accommodation added as a separate, visible travel line.
