The Challenge
Hilton’s Curio Collection wanted to show that its Dubai hotel offers a stay rooted in the city’s heritage, not another glass tower.
Our Goals
Make the property’s character the reason to book, and show a group of friends discovering it the way real guests would.
The Creative Approach
We followed a group of friends through the hotel’s heritage quarter: sand-colored alleys and wind towers, Arabic coffee in a majlis, the spice market, and dinner on the rooftop under string lights.
Behind the Scenes
We shot across the property and the surrounding old town, chasing soft morning light in the courtyards and saving the rooftop for blue hour. Working in the Dubai heat meant building the whole schedule around the sun.
Production Highlights
We produced and shot the film on location in Dubai, with a cast whose chemistry made them feel like old friends.
In Post
The grade leans into warm sandstone tones and deep textile reds, and the edit moves at the pace of a long weekend away.
