Diriyah

Documenting and visually showcasing the historical narrative of Diriyah—the birthplace of the First Saudi State and the jewel of Saudi national identity. Exploring "how it began and where it came from" required a photorealistic, cinematic approach that moves away from conventional 2D animation or graphics. The main challenge was to faithfully reconstruct ancient Najdi mud-brick architecture, heritage attire, and historical landscapes with ultra-high visual accuracy.
