TalentS were fundamental in supporting the landmark excavation of the site of Doumat Al Jandal. This project marked the first time the Heritage Commission has engaged the private sector in the archaeological excavation of the Kingdom.

We aimed to support the archaeologists throughout their excavation, providing housing, food, tools, camps, and related logistical services, ensuring all equipment was onsite and the camp ready before excavations began. 

Overall, TalentS ensured the smooth running of the operations onsite from start to finish, providing a memorable working environment for the archaeologists and exceeding expectations.

Saudi Film Days is an initiative from King Abdulaziz for World Culture (iThra) that celebrates and empowers nine Saudi directors. The aim of this initiative was to enhance local film content, and to share a side of Saudi culture and local social aspects with the world.

TalentS was the operating company who handled the journey of Saudi Film days in 2018 and 2019. The journey started with the training & development of the 9 chosen directors.

 The training included the development of their scripts and enhancing the skills of the chosen directors. We also trained the directors in marketing & then advertising their films, along the way we offered each filmmaker a mentor to guide them through the production of the film. TalentS also provided management services for the full production journey of each film. The films were first screened in a private red carpet event in Riyadh’s VOX Cinema.
