GIFs (Graphics Interchange Format)

GIFs are animation graphics that are quick and engaging. They're just one way we can help tell your story in a modern and visually appealing way. We work with some of the best animators and artists across the world.

Interactive Maps

Interactive maps visualize data, locations and bring information to life. Our interactive map sheds light on the media landscape in Jordan, allowing you to navigate through the country’s different media outlets and institutions.

Photo Stories

Mutimedia that profiles the work of individuals or organizations is a compelling visual representation in narrative form, while also displaying what is behind the photos and presenting facts. The focus is on the photography as a way of telling a story for powerful visual impact.

Infographics

Wishbox Media helps you visualize data and communicate effectively. Infographics use striking, engaging visuals to communicate information quickly and clearly. We also design and package Infographics for social media.

Animation

Whether its digital or hand drawn art, creative graphics or social media posters, we use art in a narrative form to tell stories. Hand drawn digital animation is not only visually compelling and unique in its presentation but also gives individuals the freedom to have their voice heard but not seen - ensuring privacy.

Layout and Design

Layout design is important for any project that conveys a message through eye-catching visuals, like magazine layouts, reports or website design.

Videography is movement and an irreplaceable art. We plan, direct, shoot, edit and subtitle short videos that are impactful, dynamic and beautiful.

Audio Storytelling

Wishbox Media has been working with audio and podcasting since 2020 with the launch of Wanted Women, a podcast on women in debt, and more recently published an audio feature story on the mismatch between education in Jordan and the labor sector. Since Wishbox Media was created, our team has attended workshops and trainings on podcasting and have worked with top audio engineers and have the latest recording equipment.
