Executive producer
Explore my work — welcome to my portfolio!
With 15 years of experience in TV production and film, I’ve built a career around delivering creative, high-quality content across platforms and regions
.
Suhair's Show
"Suhair Show" is an entertaining talk show aired on MBC Iraq and the Shahid platform.
The show was filmed in the city of Erbil, and features on-location segments with guests exploring the city’s touristic and natural landmarks, adding a human and cultural touch to each episode.
What sets the show apart is its use of augmented reality (AR) techniques to display all written content and visual elements on screen, giving the audience a modern, interactive viewing experience.

Beit Al Saad
"Beit Al Saad" (House of the Saads) is a hybrid reality, musical, and talk show filmed in a custom-built studio using nine ARRI Alexa Mini cameras. Hosted by two Egyptian superstar brothers, the show features celebrity guests from across the Arab world. Each episode blends candid conversations, humor, and bold discussions of controversial topics, culminating in a unique original song created specifically for the episode — many of which went viral and became hits.
Hatha Makanak
"Hatha Makanak" (translation: This Is Your Place) is a multi-guest talk show that covers trending events and news by featuring guests from across the Pan-Arab world. The program offers an entertaining and dynamic recap of the past week. We successfully produced three seasons, each consisting of 26 episodes, and the show has made a significant impact on Saudi audiences.
Beat The star / Ighlib Al Saka
"Ighlib Al Saka" is the Arabic adaptation of the international TV format Beat the Star, which gained significant popularity in Germany. The concept involves a series of large-scale, creatively designed games in which celebrities—such as singers and actors—compete against our star, Ahmad Al Sakka, one of the most renowned action actors in Egypt and the Arab world.
Drive thru OKE
"Ghanni Safari" is the Arabic version of the international Korean TV format "Drive Thru OKE." It is an outdoor talent show that stands out from traditional formats like American Idol or The X Factor. In this unique concept, contestants participate by driving through a designated path and performing from their cars in front of a jury composed of three celebrities.
Aynak Ala Meen
A different kind of talk show/game show, where the most famous stars and presenters come together in a modern studio using live visual effects (VFX) technics on air.
In each episode, the guest's identity is known to everyone — but the host will be a virtual character.
The challenge for both the guest and the audience is to figure out: who is the hidden host.
Me - Octopus
As a Producer, I’m like an octopus — everywhere and anytime. From the office and meetings, to set construction, the control room, behind the scenes with camera operators and technicians, and all the way through post-production — I’m involved at every stage to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Hope
"Amal" (Hope) is a Syrian political drama series that delves into the harsh realities of life underground during the ongoing war. Through powerful storytelling and intimate character portrayals, it sheds light on the struggles, hopes, and resilience of those living in the shadows of conflict.
Steps
Marahel (Steps) is a on on one talk show filmed using the augmented reality to expand the space the studio set but moving from step to step using Visual effects technics on a green screen
Noujoum Bila Houdoud
"Noujoum Bila Houdoud" (Stars Without Limits) is a talent and reality TV show where contestants from across the Arab world come together to compete for the title of best social media influencer across various categories. A panel of judges from different platforms provides feedback on the contestants' work, while the audience plays a key role in choosing the winner through their social media engagement. The show features 26 prime episodes and 130 daily episodes.
The Taste
"The Taste Extra" is a special bonus episode of the internationally acclaimed cooking show "The Taste." This extra edition features exclusive interviews and specially produced segments that go beyond the main competition, offering fans a deeper look into the chefs, their dishes, and behind-the-scenes moments.
3al Waad
"3al Waad" (On the Promise) is a dynamic talk show featuring games and entertainment, hosted by Waad, a well-known Saudi singer. In this project, I supervised the production of 70 recorded episodes from preparation to final delivery. One of the key challenges was securing 70 guests from diverse backgrounds—including singers, actors, athletes, and doctors—while managing a back-to-back shooting schedule.
Nas Ajnas
"Al-Nas Ajnas" (People Are Diverse) is an engaging talk show that explores a wide range of topics related to art, culture, society, and everyday life. Each episode features a diverse group of guests who share unique perspectives and personal experiences. Through lively and thoughtful discussions, the show highlights the richness of human diversity and creates a space where dialogue bridges differences and celebrates individuality.
Akhbar 3a Nar
"Akhbar Aala Al-Nar" (News on Fire) offers a rich daily serving of unique and humorous news in an entirely new comedic format. It features a variety of segments, including impersonations, challenges, and games. The show is hosted by comedian Jad Bou Karam, Aya Taleb, and actress Bonita Saade.
KAFA Awareness Video
This project is especially close to my heart. Created for KAFA, a leading NGO (Beirut) committed to ending domestic violence and promoting women’s rights, this awareness video was entirely crafted by me—from concept development and production to direction and final editing.
My goal was to create a piece that not only informs but also resonates emotionally. I wanted viewers to feel the weight of verbal abuse, sense the urgency for change, and understand that change is a choice. Through carefully chosen visuals, a spiraling camera movement that encircles the abuser—highlighting how his behavior blocks him from change—immersive sound design, and purposeful pacing, the video creates a powerful emotional impact.
It speaks directly to the abuser, urging him to recognize his actions and take responsibility. The message is clear: change is possible, and help is available. KAFA offers support to those willing to break the cycle of abusive behavior and build healthier, more respectful relationships with their partners.
