Part I: Project Introduc5on
•
Saudi Arabia is breaking its way to develop a country in which has a connec5on with the interna5onal authori5es that further grows the country. A huge step into that maCer was the speech given by Prince Muhammad Bin Salman when he discussed the points the country will hopefully achieve by 2030.
•
The majority of the points were focused on growing the economy, improving our image in the media, and focus on the youth whom are the future leaders of the country. Another important aspect about the vision was the need for entertainment facili5es, which combine all of the major points men5oned above; therefore General Entertainment Authority was created.
•
If we take a look at the General Entertainment Authority calendar, we can find huge plans for cinemas in Saudi Arabia, media, and filmmaking. The General Entertainment Authority invested in the youth who have the talents for filmmaking as well as a career in the media world.

Part I: Fish Industry
– –
Fish market in Jeddah has over 50 species of sea creatures on display. Over 1080 penal5es over the past 2015 for infrac5ons that ruined the quality of fish.
–
Almost 200 shops in Khobar Fish market.
–
Khobar market is known for selling fish from other regions and not Saudi fish because of the bad quality of the place and how its not prepared for fishermen and to inhabit the fishery.
–
Other than that, most of the fish we receive in Riyadh is from other gulf area region.
–
Saudi Arabia faces the sea on 2600 km yet has no large produc5on of fishery.
–
Saudi Arabia used to produce 100,000 tones but went down 900 tones lately.
–
As for the future plans, Saudi Arabia plans to invest almost 75,000,000,00 throughout 16 years in fishery and increasing the economy of Saudi Arabia through fishery.
–
Plans for making a local program to develop fisheries. This program aims to support fisheries investors.

Part I: Reason behind choosing the project and Importance
•
Saudi Arabia is currently going through a transi?on of developing in many aspects towards modernity and development; therefore, vision 2030 was created.
•
Moving parallel with vision 2030 and thinking of development as well as growth in all aspects including architecture.
•
Crea?ng a cinema?c city is way to keep the youth busy with things that could help develop the country rather than keep busy with things that could take their future away.
•
This project is a way to help the youth grow to create a posi5ve reflec5on of the community and society through media and filmmaking. This project could be a great addi5on to the environment by considering the important aspects to help the environment not harm it.

Like film, the building uses spa?al layering and oblique composi?onal lines to create depths of field and light is used to give “deep focus” and to animate movement across, through and within the framed views.

As one walks through the building light and perspec?ve are manipulated to create spaces similar to great cinema?c ones.

Mild steel is a material that is immensely strong.

This immense strength is of great advantage to buildings.
•
when subjected to great force, it will not suddenly crack like glass, but slowly bend out of shape. This property allows steel buildings to bend out of shape, or deform, thus giving warning to inhabitants to escape.

Programming & Design Data: Design Considera5ons (Flexibility)
In general, produc?on designing occupies rooms specifically. There are no mul?purpose rooms as each func?on men?oned before has special treatments. In that maier, some interior flexible op?ons would include: Room Par??ons: This could be used between offices at one 5me, then stretched into mee5ng rooms or show rooms. Furniture Pieces: Selec5ve pieces that occupy offices in lounges in need of more produc5on desks.

Live spaces acous?cal treatments: Spaces with a long reverbera5on 5me are called Live Spaces, they are good for augmen5ng the richness and loudness of musical sounds.

Sound-absorbing materials •
Sound-absorbing materials : fibrous or open cell structures Let air pass
•
Fric5on with the walls of these narrow passages causes the sound waves
•
to lose their energy. •
Panel absorbers •
Flex under the impact of sound.
•
Flexing also converts sound energy into heat energy.
•
Volume resonators •
Usually consist of hollow concrete blocks that have open slits for the sound waves to enter.

Acous?cal Design Goals in designing theaters and large rooms: •
Crea5ng sufficient loudness for the audience in the rear of the space.
•
Diffusing sound throughout the whole space .
•
Adding reflec5ng surfaces & ceilings at the stage
•
Design for reverbera5on 5me according to content ( Speech or music)

•
Loudspeaker loca?on: centrally located, or well distributed (usually in the ceiling),or seat integrated, or any combina5on of the above.
•
Locate loudspeakers sufficiently far from the microphones: To prevent the horrible squeal of feedback
•
Allocate space for loudspeakers: Because they are quite large
•
Locate opera?ng sound person & equipment near audience: This is ensure he hears what the audience hears
•
Distributed speakers as close as possible to the listeners in large with reflec?ve surfaces ( spaces such as shopping malls, railroad sta5ons, and some arenas ) If only a few distant speakers are used the powerful speakers and long distances involved are ideal condi5ons for genera5ng echoes and par5al echoes..

Outdoor Noise Preven?on: •
Locate the building as far as possible from a highway or busy street.
•
Minimize the windows facing the source of noise.
•
Avoid operable windows or facades facing the noise source.
•
Avoid balconies facing noise source:
•
Create a high sound barrier either close to the sound or to the receiver and with no holes:
•
•
Adding sound absorbing materials to barriers in highly dense areas:
•
A noise barrier made of deep layer of trees.
•
Noise barrier of high earth berms (earth sheltered architecture)
•
Have the building face inward

Soundproofing: • Both internal ceilings to be angled to increase the overall air volume in both the Live Room and Control room, enabling lower frequencies to fully develop • Specific angles given to further enhance the acous5cs of each room • All floors to be wooded, giving a smoother full frequency range reverbera5on 5me • A Quadra5c Diffuser installed on the rear wall of the Control Room would be effec5ve in making the room sound larger than it actually was. Addi5onal sound proofing to be added to the ceiling of the exis5ng office par55on wall and to the space above the par55on wall

Daylight Integra?on Incorpora5ng day ligh5ng in the ligh5ng design can be done by; •
Proper control of the fenestra5on luminance
•
Daylight sensing and compensa5on control systems which allow adjustments to electric electrical ligh5ng system
•
Glare controls should be incorporated in the design
•
New techniques for piping light into interior spaces which allow sunlight and daylight to furnish higher percentage of illumina5on requirements and more uniform distribu5on.

Camera and Sound •
Unplug video players, monitors and other similar equipment
•
When purchasing or ren5ng equipment ask about energy-efficient alterna5ves or enquire about more efficient ways to use the equipment
•
Where quality allows, use digital processes for filming and sound recording
•
When using film, check that your suppliers have end of life management programs compliant with local regula5ons for disposal of photographic processing chemicals
•
Avoid sending waste film to landfills by asking your supplier about recycling or other ecofriendly op5ons

Grip and Electric: •
Use hydro electric based power when possible to avoid emissions from generators
•
Replace flickering, dim and burned out lamps
•
When replacing light bulbs, replace with lower-waCage, longer life, cool lamps or energy-efficient alterna5ves such as fluorescents
•
Use dimmers to rest lights between setups rather than switching lights on and off
•
Encourage the use of fluorescent lights for work areas on loca5on
•
Use environmentally considerate tex5les on frames instead of poly based materials for bounce and filtra5on
•
Recycle colour gels so that they can be used in future produc5on

Solar cell Fabric Solar cell fabric is a fabric with embedded photovoltaic (PV) cells which generate electricity when exposed to light. Tradi5onal silicon based solar cells are expensive to manufacture, rigid and fragile. Although less efficient, thinfilm cells and organic polymer based cells can be produced quickly and cheaply. They are also flexible and can be s5tched onto fabric.
