WAKEDUBAI
Premier wakeboarding and wakesurfing content across Dubai's iconic harbors.
Wake Dubai runs luxury towboat experiences across the UAE. The content needed to feel fast, sun-soaked, and unmistakably Dubai.
I produced a large still library and vertical reel suite covering athletes, boats, skyline backdrops, and campaign graphics.
The visual system had to work at thumbnail scale and full-bleed: bold colour, clean type, and motion that sells the ride.

Ride the skyline
Water, wake, and city edge became the triangle: every frame ties the sport to place.
Campaign graphics sit inside the same warm palette as the photography so social tiles feel continuous, not pasted on.
