Track 1 — Cinematic Lighting & Compositing

Why It's Different

Lighting expertise most visualizers don't have.

Three credentials most visualization studios can't claim together: an internationally awarded film, published research on viewer perception, and a certified real-time production pipeline — combined in one person, on your project.

Serving developers and studios across Saudi Arabia & the GCC

Why the lighting is different here: Most visualization providers work from artistic instinct and years of practice. I add a third layer — published research on how color temperature, contrast, and lighting direction shape viewer attention — proven on an award-winning short film that won the Golden Palm at the Saudi Film Festival 2024.

Training & Lecturing

Documented teaching experience, academic and industry-facing.

Lecturer in 3D Animation at Jeddah International College since 2025, and former Lighting & Compositing Instructor at Monster Emporium Animation School (London). MA in Visual Communication & Media Studies, with research in cinematic lighting and viewer attention.

Who This Is For

I don't design buildings. I take a finished or in-progress model and turn it into something a client can walk through and understand in seconds - lit the way a film is lit.

For Studios & Firms

Two ways to work together.

You have architects and modelers. You need someone who turns finished models into real-time walkthroughs; in-house, on retainer, or per project. I plug into your existing Revit / 3ds Max / SketchUp pipeline without changing how your team works.

Commission a single project

For Developers & Direct Clients

You have a building or masterplan to sell before it's built. Send me your model; I deliver a lit, explorable walkthrough your sales team or investors can use immediately.

Days, not render queues

Why Real-Time

Offline renderers like V-Ray and Arnold are precise but slow. Unreal Engine 5 collapses that loop.

Speed

Faster to review. Easier to sell.

Lighting and camera changes update live. Clients see revisions the same day they ask for them.

Walk it, don't just watch it

Interactivity

Deliver an explorable build — buyers move through the space themselves, not a fixed camera path.

Cinematic, not catalogue

Craft

Lighting built around mood and story, from a background directing attention in award-winning film.

Real-Time Architectural Walkthroughs

Services

01

Where I plug into your project.

Interactive, explorable builds of a single structure for client presentations and investor decks.

Masterplan & Urban Visualization

02

Large-scale district and masterplan flythroughs for developers communicating scale before construction.

Interior Lighting Visualization

03

Mood-driven interior renders and walkthroughs for hospitality, residential, and retail fit-outs.

Revit / 3ds Max → Unreal Pipeline Setup

04

Datasmith-based import and lighting pipeline setup for teams bringing their own models into real-time review.

Process

From your model to a walkthrough.

You send a finished or near-finished model; I handle everything from there.

01

You send the model

Your Revit, 3ds Max, or SketchUp file, at whatever stage it's at.

02

I import it

Brought into Unreal Engine via Datasmith, preserving geometry, materials, and scale exactly.

03

I light and build it

Lumen-based lighting pass, camera paths, and navigation built for how the space will be sold.

04

You receive it

In the format that fits how you'll use it.

From raw model to a lit, explorable build.

One project, broken down.

01 — A raw import: geometry and materials, no lighting yet

02 — First lighting pass: setting mood before detail

03 — Camera paths: how a buyer or investor will actually move through the space

04 — Day vs. night: the same space, two completely different sales pitches

Inside a Walkthrough

05 — Final build: ready to hand a client the controls

What You Receive

Exact formats, not vague promises.

A rendered flythrough video for sales decks and presentations.

MP4 Walkthrough

A standalone app your team runs on-site; no headset needed.

Interactive Build

Packaged for VR headsets and 360° viewers, for galleries and exhibitions.

360° / VR-Ready

A rendered flythrough video for sales decks and presentations.

High-Res Stills

Selected Work

Architectural & masterplan projects.

Samples of some of the projects we have worked on with our clients

What this means for your project: A walkthrough lit with intent doesn't just look impressive in a sales deck — it shortens the buyer's decision. When lighting draws the eye to the feature that sells (the view, the finish, the space), investors and buyers spend less time asking questions and more time saying yes.
