The launch teaser

Hashi walks into the branch: the teaser that introduced the character and the new product across social and in-store screens.

Meet Hashi

A camel in a sombrero and a thobe — the brand's Saudi-Mexican handshake in one character. Modelled, rigged and rendered in Blender, then put to work: holding the new-product sign and presenting the menu.

03Product Photography

Clean, hungry, honest

Shot in-house on white: quesadilla, taco, burrito and the rice bowl. Consistent light, consistent angle, real product — so the same file works on a menu board, a delivery app and a social post without a re-shoot.
