Abu Dhabi plans to invest over $1 billion to develop its film and media industries. The plan is colloquially known as Imagination Studios, and officially named “Abu Dhabi Image Nation.” Currently, it has a three point-plan: (1) Partner with independent Hollywood studios to release at least 8 pictures a year; (2) Produce movies targeting Arab audiences; and (3) Produce original web-based content. The media is in the making in the UAE. And Mer-chan is planning to join the fun. Check back for updates as Mer-chan relocates to Dubai.
