On Location
Video editing in the UAE serves features, series, commercials and corporate content from editorial suites around twofour54 in Abu Dhabi and Dubai Studio City, the media hub of the Middle East.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. We deliver video editing that turns raw footage into a finished, story-driven programme, prioritising narrative flow and emotional impact across each cut. Our team works on all major NLE sites. Adobe Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro. These have and matches the tool to the project and the client's pipeline.
Here is how the picture comes together. The UAE's editorial base in Abu Dhabi near twofour54 and in Dubai Studio City and Dubai Media City gives editors and optimised post-prod pipelines. This has proxy workflows and remote joint work through systems like Frame.io and Evercast so directors and producers stay connected wherever they are.
We handle all pro formats from ProRes and DNxHD to ARRIRAW and RED, across 4K, 6K and 8K resolutions with HDR and SDR workflows.
Here is what we have to work with. Video editing underpins the UAE's position as the media hub of the Middle East: pan-Arab TV networks at Dubai Media City and twofour54 commission steady series, factual and branded content. While Image Nation Abu Dhabi and Emirati directors such as Nayla Al Khaja anchor a growing slate of features.
Here is the layout. Global shoots that filmed in the United Arab Emirates also finish editorial in-region. Editing here routinely prepares Arabic and English deliverables with the versioning the wider Arab market expects. The twofour54 production rebates of up to 35% and a 5% VAT rate make the UAE a cost-efficient base for editorial.
Our team delivers conformed, ordered sequences ready for grading, sound editing and final delivery, and handles source media in line with the federal Personal Data Protection Law.
