Travel promotion & destination films

Travel promotion video for tourist offices, hotels and travel operators — shot on location, with the photography that goes with it.

The destination film

A destination marketing film has one job: make someone want to be where you are. We shoot them on location for tourist offices, travel agencies, hotels and travel operators — the light, the streets, the coast, the people who actually live there. Nothing on this page is stock and nothing is generated: if it is in the film, we stood there with a camera. A destination film runs wherever you need it to run — a campaign, a screen on a trade-fair stand, the top of your own site — and because we photograph as we shoot, the stills speak the same language as the film.

Hotels & venues

Hotel video production is closer to portraiture than to spectacle. A property has a handful of honest assets — the room at dusk, the breakfast table, the pool before the first swimmer, the people who run the place — and the film’s job is to show them as they are, well. We shoot a venue the way a guest moves through it, in its own light, and we photograph as we go: one visit produces the film for the campaign and the stills for the listings, the site and the press kit. It is coverage a booking page can live on for years.

One crew, film and photo

Travel work travels light. The crew that shoots our documentaries shoots these films — same people, same eye — and the chain stays in-house: shooting, editing, grading, sound. Photography is not an add-on; it is the other half of the same shoot, and every frame on this page is our own. What you receive is a film, the cutdowns for the channels you publish on, and a set of stills from the same days — one visual language across the whole campaign, because one crew made all of it.

Where we’ve shot

The reel below carries our destination films — Tunisia, Cuba, Morocco, Lofoten and Greenland — each shot in the place it is named for. The frames around them come from the same years of travel work, on the ground and from the air, and they are the argument: a fjord village is not lit like a desert camp, and a film that treats every destination the same way is a film about nothing. The crew has been shooting since 2016. If your destination or your property belongs on this list, tell us where it is — and when the light is best.

The work, in frames

Aerial view of a fjord village at the foot of jagged peaks, sunset light on the waterA terraced open-air tannery: pale square vats in front, round dark dye pits behind, a worker walking between themA close view of the curved ridge of a sand dune, sunlit and shadowed sides in sharp contrastSeen from a safari vehicle, a pride of lions walks along a dirt road through the bushThe domed interior of a mosque, stained-glass windows above, worshippers seated on the red carpetThe Streets of Cuba title card, a woman walking past pastel-painted building facadesA tunnel of vermilion torii gates over stone steps, visitors climbing in the distanceBlue-washed walls of a narrow courtyard, laundry hanging to dry between the windowsA waterfall lit faintly at night beneath a green aurora and starry sky, small figures at its baseA rocky desert canyon at dusk under a pink and lavender sky, a figure seated belowWooden tables and chairs half-buried in sand outside a row of canvas tentsA stone lighthouse with a green lantern room beside a ruined tower on a heather-covered headland
