Jean-Michel Jarre conceived & performed a historic concert-spectacular at the foot of the new King Abdullah Financial District, where women, men and families gathered en masse to share this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

This was my third opportunity of being part of Jvan Morandi’s Placing Shadows crew, tasked with creating animations, editing & motion graphics for French electronic pioneer legend, Jean-Michel Jarre.

The Green Concert performance aim was to beautifully simulate the Kingdom’s future and portray the vision of HRH Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman. Furthermore, it symbolizes new environmental values and ambitions adopted by the Kingdom in regards to renewable energy and a better future for the planet. Jarre’s central stage-set was powered entirely by solar energy harvested from solar panels in a representation of such environmental conservation aspirations.

The creative process of working with Jvan Morandi & his crew along with JMJ's inspiration and direction has turned out to be one of the highlights of my professional career.
