Nayla Chacra
Executive Producer and Operation Lead Optix Post Production
Prodigious
Dubai
Third culture kid brought up in Benin, Morocco and India with an education and production experience in prominent cities such as New York, London, and Singapore. I believe my upbringing equipped me to build a distinctive path blending documentary sensibilities with branded storytelling, championing a form of modern craft that merges authenticity with innovation. ??
Over the past decade, I have pushed the limit of my boundaries contributing to the establishing and scaling of Prodigious/Optix at Publicis Groupe in the region, nurturing talent and fostering a culture of collaboration. My multicultural background and adaptable mindset have made me a trusted partner for agencies and clients alike, especially when navigating ambitious productions or building complex creative solutions from the ground up. More recently, I've been focusing on the transformation of the production ecosystem by integrating AI solutions to enhance efficiency and elevate creativity, while ensuring it remains a tool that respects human expertise and craft in our creative industry.??
In a nutshell, whether working with global brands or purpose-driven organizations, I've always remained committed to pushing the boundaries of what film and photography content can achieve, while approaching every project with a strong belief in storytelling, partnership, and the importance of keeping humanity at the center of the journey.
