BBC StoryWorks | The Global Energy Transition

The Progress Film Company

Three purposeful documentary films for BBC StoryWorks telling the incredible stories of global energy transition advancements through the perspective of three of ACWA’s knowledgeable and passionate employees. Shot in Dubai both on location and in a studio while working with local production companies, the interviews took place against striking and relevant backdrops, such as the Noor Energy One boardroom overlooking the solar park, or within a technical room at Um Al Quwain desalination park.

An integral part of the filming involved a purpose built bespoke LED cube which featured pre edited large-scale projections of powerful imagery such as the natural world, historical energy production footage and technical diagrams to give the films a shared sense of identity and create a powerful, visual world that surrounds our characters.
