Photography and video company in Qatar: Noor Digital Technology
Noor Digital Technology photographs and films for businesses in Doha. One kind of job is a café on the delivery apps whose dishes need shooting in its own kitchen, with pictures cropped to each app’s size. Others cover products, a showroom, staff portraits or a whole event. Short films come with Arabic and English subtitles, typeset rather than auto-generated.

What changes from job to job
Restaurants and cafés
A new restaurant in Lusail needs one crop and file size for the delivery apps and another for the printed menu.
Events
The photographer gets the running order in advance and knows when each speaker is due on stage.
Short films
Arabic and English subtitles are typeset, not generated automatically.
Print and paid ads
A billboard or a paid campaign has to be on the list from the start, or the pictures are not cleared for it.
Photography and video services
- Commercial photography
Staff, a showroom or a product range. Each picture is planned for where it will be printed or posted.
- Event photography
Conferences, launches and other company events, shot from the running order you send ahead.
- Product photography
For an online store, the products are shot in one session: on a white background, in close-up and in use. Each picture is cropped to the store’s sizes.
- Food photography
The photographer comes to your kitchen, and the menu, the delivery apps and Instagram each get a crop of their own.
- Video production
Script, filming and edit, then a separate cut for Instagram, the website or wherever else the film will run.
A question about using the photos
Can the photos go into print ads and billboards too?
Only if the quotation says so. Book the shoot for the website and the pictures are cleared for the website; a billboard, or a paid Instagram campaign a few months on, would need to be on the list from the beginning. So mention every use when you ask for a price.
