Jawaker Game Tutorials
Role: Pre-Production, Direction, Editor, Motion Designer
Client: Jawaker
Platform: YouTube
Overview:
The Jawaker Full Tutorials series was designed to help new and existing players understand the rules and strategies of key games on the platform, such as Trix, Tarneeb, and Hand. The goal was to create clear, engaging, and culturally resonant video tutorials that enhance player retention and improve onboarding.
My Contribution:
From concept to final delivery, I led the end-to-end production process:
Pre-Production: Crafted detailed shot lists, sourced or created props, coordinated location and talent needs, and ensured each shoot was fully prepped for smooth execution.
Direction: Oversaw the live shoots, working closely with the camera crew and talent to ensure each shot aligned with our visual and instructional goals.
Post-Production: Handled all video editing, sound sync, and the creation of custom motion graphics and animated overlays that clarified gameplay and elevated viewer engagement.
The tutorial series played a key role in establishing Jawaker as
the #1 reference point for Arabic card game rules
across digital platforms, boosting discoverability, reducing player confusion, and enriching the onboarding experience.
