The challenge

NEOM needed one story that could carry many sectors at once and make a project still under construction feel real to international audiences and investors.

The idea

McCann London framed NEOM as a change-maker, closing on the line "the place that's made to change is here". Joy Films produced, with Dave Meyers directing and UPP on VFX and grading.
