For the ASSAF x BENZEMA campaign, we literally had just hours to prepare and only 90 minutes to shoot four commercials with football legend Karim Benzema on time for Ramadan. As the director, I planned every detail – mapping each shot with our international team, deciding where and how to get a natural performance and where to use a stand-in. Over just three days, I worked in close collaboration with the local production and art department in Jeddah to create the vision, craft all storyboards, designed the sets, and pre-visualize every frame. Through precise planning and seamless teamwork, we brought all four commercials to life – fast, focused, and fully aligned with the creative concept and symbols of Ramadan.
