The filming process was a success, with Barshim captured in action at Aspire’s warm-up track and Al Kaabi in front of a stunning chroma backdrop. The chroma shots were lit to perfection by Red Dot’s Managing Director, Shadab Khan, making the special effects process a breeze.

As the Creative Head of Red Dot, Yousif Al Hamadi, explains, “Even though chroma keying has become easier with advanced software, lighting the chroma correctly is still crucial. And we’re glad we did it right!”
