Corporate video in Dubai is not a lesser cousin of a commercial. It is interviews, product inserts, a CEO who has twelve minutes, and a skyline the brand wants in the open. The commission’s published production types include corporate content as its own line — which is why a “quick office film” still belongs on a production call sheet.
When the permit appears
Filming strictly inside rooms you control can be a different conversation from a public or hotel lobby. The moment you step onto a street, a mall, a tower common area or a skyline terrace, treat it as a DFTC day and appoint a licensed house if you are not one. We do not invent which private offices are exempt. We ask, then we file.
What the day includes
A scout of the rooms that will actually be on camera. Power, sound and a backup if the glass tower howls. Talent or staff briefing. Kit. Catering that stays out of the wide. Permits and location letters when the building asks for them.
What to send
Duration, language, whether the piece is internal or public, offices versus streets, and whether a drone is in the wish list. If it is, read drone filming in Dubai first. Write lata@carvingdreamsevent.com.
Questions
- Only inside our office?
- Tell us the rooms and who owns the building. We will say if the day still needs a filing.
- Same as a TVC?
- Shorter brief, same city rules. Talent and skyline still need a plan.
- Can you do several emirates?
- Name each city. Paperwork changes at the border.
