AI museum
2025
Burj Al Ibil is a concept for a large-scale monument in Saudi Arabia, developed by WOW Production as part of the Vision 2030 program. The 3D film visualizes a 100-meter camel sculpture carrying a stack of elements drawn from Arab heritage (architecture, coffee pots, swords, textiles), standing on a patterned circular plaza in a stylized desert landscape.
Beside the camel stands "The AI Knight", a 70-meter figure in traditional dress holding a falcon drone. The film also presents a 60-meter LED screen and the AI Dunes Museum, a curved building set into the dunes. The sequence moves from day to night and ends on the Vision 2030 logo.
My part: I assembled the scenes in Cinema 4D, set up lighting and materials, and handled all camera animation and FX. I built a couple of scenes in Houdini. Rendering and the final assembly in After Effects were done together with my partner.
