A video & photo studio on the French Riviera making sport films, event coverage, brand films and athlete portraits — for races, clubs, athletes, brands, and communities.
I'm Khalil. I run Naja Studio — a video and photo studio based in Nice, on the French Riviera. Most of what we make lives somewhere in sport — Hyrox events, marathons, triathlons, trail races, athletes, the clubs and coaches that hold the whole thing together — but the work travels when the story asks it to.
The brief is simple: find the story, build the frame, make something worth watching.
The studio is one filmmaker plus a small circle of trusted collaborators — sound, color, second camera, photo support when the day needs it. Lean operation, full commitment to every shot.
If there's a story, there's a frame. I'd love to hear about yours.
Race days, Hyrox events, marathons, triathlons, trail runs — captured on location, in real time, with full commitment to the shot.
