Arabian Nights
series leader / digital painter
Studio Whoohoo! asked me to collaborate on an Arabian Nights-themed Netflix series leader tailored for Middle Eastern audiences. We decided to go for an arts and crafts aesthetic, crafting a diorama that brought an ancient Arabic city to life. Drawing inspiration from legendary Persian cities such as Babylon and Persepolis, I reimagined and transformed them into a fantastical, enchanted cityscape. My painting was also used as a backdrop for some parts of the show.
