Alchemiya is a new and exciting premium, online, subscription-based, video-on-demand platform, similar to Netflix. It’s now been snapped up by Amazon Prime to add to their streaming roster, joining 70 major channels including HBO, Starz and Comedy Central. Initial launch is in the US, with Europe and Asia to follow in the next few months. Alchemiya presents the world’s best content about Muslim life, and concentrates on the positives, showing the contributions of Islam and Muslims. Aimed at young Global Urban Muslims, known as ‘Gummies’, it will tap into the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims whose market is worth $2.1tn (£1.5tn) annually worldwide – and is increasing by $500bn a year.

With Islamic geometry and the ‘Nuqta’ symbol found in Arabic script as our inspiration, working with OSTModern, One Agency created a bespoke online player and developed a visual brand language that echoes the high production values of each title.

We at One Agency have been involved with Alchemiya from the very beginning. Partnering the executive teams to create a visual and viable brand. It has proved crucial during the early funding stages. This relationship has now involved working with Amazon Channels in creating and supplying new assets for the numerous titles that appear on the US version of the channel. Our work currently involves creating designs for the imminent launch in the EMEA regions.

A few years back, Oliver Percovich and Sharna Nolan arrive in Kabul with little more than a couple of skateboards. They soon discover that their boards draw local children like a magnetic force. After beginning regular skateboarding sessions in an abandoned fountain, one of the few smooth surfaces in Kabul, local boys and girls from the streets start to join them.

Alchemiya presents... Baraka Blue's Love & Light: a modern, Western poet's interpretation of a traditional Islamic dua (prayer). Shot on location in the eternal city of Fez, Morocco.
