NASREEN ELDAWI
Nasreen leads 208 Films with over 20 years’ experience producing content for global audiences. A bilingual Arabic-English speaker, she’s a former TV producer who cut her teeth at the BBC, MBC, MTV, CBS and Entertainment Tonight - covering everything from the Cannes Film Festival to the Grammys and BAFTAs, and interviewing A-list names including Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Salma Hayek, Tom Cruise and George Clooney.
Today, Nasreen brings her unique mix of editorial instinct, cultural fluency and commercial expertise to every project. She has led 208 Films’ evolution from a boutique video studio into an international creative and production powerhouse trusted by clients from Silicon Valley to the Saudi desert.
WHAT WE DO
208 delivers end-to-end content production and distribution services for some of the most recognisable names in the world. Our work spans brand films, docuseries, commercials, social-first campaigns, and immersive experiences, always tailored to meet your audience where they are - emotionally, culturally, and digitally.
We work across industries and formats to deliver content that is cinematic in quality, strategic in execution, and global in ambition. Clients include film studios, tourism boards, tech giants, luxury fashion houses, international NGOs and government entities.
FILM, TV & VIDEO PRODUCTION
From short-form branded content to long-form series, we create high-end video with purpose and polish. Our portfolio includes work for Google, Samsung, NEOM, L'Oréal, Uber, Fendi, MDL Beast, the World Bank, and the Saudi Tennis Federation.
Television credits include the Emmy Award-winning Entertainment Tonight, MBC (the largest network in the Arab world), and global broadcasters like the History Channel, CBS, NBC, Paramount, Viacom, and Sky.
SOCIAL & DIGITAL CONTENT
From fast-turnaround verticals to multiplatform storytelling, we produce agile, audience-driven content for today’s most influential platforms. Whether it’s a TikTok teaser, Instagram series, YouTube doc, or global livestream - we bring the same creativity, quality and strategy as we do to long-form projects.
We help clients show up powerfully online and speak natively to their audience - wherever they scroll.
IMMERSIVE & EXPERIENTIAL
Our immersive division delivers VR, AR, 360° video, and location-based experiences that push the boundaries of storytelling. Whether it’s a cinematic VR journey, a real-time AR activation, or a fully interactive exhibition, we use emerging tech to bring audiences closer to the story - and each other.
Our partners include tech innovators, cultural institutions and forward-thinking brands who want to engage audiences in bold and memorable ways.
CONTENT COMMUNICATIONS
Creating powerful content is only half the story. We also help you get it seen.
Our in-house communications team builds content-led media strategies and manages global distribution campaigns. From broadcast news placement to influencer amplification, we work with media partners, agencies and buyers to make sure your content reaches the right audience, in the right market, at the right time.
