At Dow Studios, we don’t just tell stories from the ground—we take them to the skies. As a licensed and experienced drone operator based in Doha, we provide high-end aerial footage that elevates any visual campaign. Whether you’re building a brand, showcasing architecture, or documenting key milestones, our drone services deliver breathtaking perspectives with cinematic precision.

We hold a certified drone license and maintain close communication with Qatari authorities to ensure every flight is properly permitted and safe. This allows us to work efficiently across complex environments, including education institutions, hospitals, and landmark locations.

Why Drone Footage Matters

Aerial footage is more than a “wow” factor—it’s a storytelling tool that provides context, scale, and visual drama. In urban spaces like Doha, where architectural contrast and innovation define the landscape, drone imagery lets viewers appreciate the full spatial experience.

For institutional clients, drone shots offer practical and visual value:

  • Showcasing the scale and footprint of large facilities
  • Capturing architectural symmetry or contrast
  • Enhancing storytelling with seamless transitions from wide to close-up views
  • Providing unique marketing material for websites, presentations, and digital campaigns

Drone footage also plays a crucial role in location-based industries—such as real estate, construction, hospitality, and education—offering a powerful first impression to stakeholders and audiences.

Project Highlights: Drone Work in Qatar

Sidra Medicine

With its bold curves and reflective materials, Sidra Hospital is a masterwork of modern healthcare architecture. Our collaboration included a full photo library covering interior spaces, architectural exteriors, and lifestyle scenarios.

Adding drone footage allowed us to frame Sidra’s dramatic design from above—showing its placement in the city, its flowing organic form, and the harmony between built structure and landscaped surroundings.

Weill Cornell Medicine – Qatar

In another milestone project, we partnered with Weill Cornell to combine two powerful visual formats: high-quality drone footage and a fully immersive 360° virtual tour of their campus. This unique hybrid approach gave the university a versatile visual toolkit that worked across different platforms—whether for prospective student engagement, internal presentations, or digital campaigns.

The aerial shots provided sweeping views of the campus layout and surrounding architecture, while the 360 experience allowed users to explore indoor and outdoor spaces interactively. Together, they offered a complete and dynamic representation of life and learning at Weill Cornell Qatar.

Qatar University

Qatar University, a landmark in Doha’s educational and architectural landscape, gave us a unique canvas. Known for its traditional Arabic geometric forms and striking desert-hued structures, it remains one of the country’s most iconic sites.

We were proud to be recommissioned by Qatar University to update their image library. This time, alongside new lifestyle and candid images, we introduced high-quality drone footage that highlighted both the classic and contemporary architecture. From overhead views of geometric patterns to dynamic tracking shots of student life, the aerials gave new life to their visual assets.

The desert landscapes of Sekreet

One of the standout drone projects in our drone portfolio was created in collaboration with Sports Corner, Intouch, and Qatari mountaineer Fahad Badar for Qatar National Day. Set in the striking desert landscapes of Sekreet, this production relied heavily on cinematic drone footage to convey the vastness, strength, and beauty of Qatar’s natural environment.

The drone captured sweeping desert vistas, dramatic hero shots, and aerial tracking scenes that elevated Fahad’s inspiring story—making it a powerful symbol of Qatari ambition and resilience. Combined with Arabic music and personal interview footage, the project demonstrates how aerial visuals can enrich storytelling on a national level.
