Eyepoke Entertainment · Jeddah

Stories from here, built for everywhere.

We develop and manage original intellectual property. Every world is written in full before a single frame is drawn, then carried across books, series and film.

The company

Eyepoke Entertainment is an IP development and management company, founded in Jeddah in 2020. We write each world in full, keep its creative core in-house, and partner with established studios to bring it to the screen.

01

Write it first

Every project begins as finished writing: a novel, a world bible, a canon that holds. The expensive formats adapt something that already works.

02

Keep the core

Story, canon, art direction, the writers' room and the final cut stay with us. That is what decides whether the work is good.

03

Build with partners

Animation and production are contracted per project from studios that already have the capacity, so the cost moves with the work.

Flagship · Original franchise

The Two Weights

A novel, a manga and an animated series built on Jinn mythology, the one major mythology that no studio has yet turned into a franchise.

Book One · Let There Be Silence

An empire that speaks to its people in their own voice.

For ten thousand years an empire has kept control by placing a listening device behind every child's ear and speaking through it in a voice that sounds like the person's own thoughts. Then a signal arrives from a direction nobody was watching, and it cannot be opened, counted or explained.

“For ten thousand years there had been no such thing under the seven skies as a soul alone with itself. Now there was nothing else.” The Two Weights, Book One

Barakah

بركة

She came with the army that meant to tear the House down, and became the one thing the House kept.

The film opens on the day the orphan she raised has died, and the mourners come to her door. From that room it travels back sixty-three years: to an enslaved Abyssinian girl, the only survivor of the army that marched on Mecca, carried into the city as part of one man's share of the spoils.

Known to history as Umm Ayman, she stood beside the most important figure in history longer than anyone did, from before his birth until the day he died. Yet most people have never heard her name.

This is her story. She is in every shot. He is in none.
