Our 4-week commercial shooting for Addo Elephant Park in South Africa was an adventure like no other. We spent several days in the wilderness, capturing the most stunning footage of animals in their natural habitat. We wanted to create content that was authentic and raw, so we decided to use as little technology as possible. This allowed us to immerse ourselves fully in the experience and capture the true essence of the park.

Our days started early, and we often worked until late into the night. We wanted to make sure that we got every shot we needed, and that meant waiting for hours for the perfect lighting and conditions. But all the waiting was worth it, as the resulting footage was breathtaking.

One of the most exhilarating parts of the shoot was being face to face with some of the most dangerous animals in the world. We got up close and personal with lions, rhinos, and elephants, and it was a heart-stopping experience. But we never felt in danger, as we were always guided by experienced rangers who ensured our safety.

We were fortunate enough to see and film all of the "Big Five" - the lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, and rhino - which was a highlight of the shoot. The beauty of these creatures in their natural habitat was awe-inspiring, and we were honored to have captured their grace and power on film.

The locations we shot in were absolutely stunning, with unspoiled landscapes that few people have ever seen. The natural beauty of Addo Elephant Park was truly breathtaking, and we feel privileged to have been able to capture its essence on film.

Overall, our approach was to create content that was authentic, immersive, and breathtaking. We wanted to capture the true spirit of the park and all the amazing wildlife it had to offer. It was an unforgettable experience that we will treasure forever.

hard facts.

We wanted to produce the most authentic content possible with as little technology as possible. We spent four weeks filming in the wilderness, coming face to face with the animals and capturing untouched nature that few have seen. Our goal was to immerse the viewer in the environment, and we felt that a minimalistic approach to technology would be the best way to achieve this. We wanted to showcase the raw beauty of the natural world without any filters or artificial enhancements. The result is a truly unique viewing experience that transports the audience to a place that few have ever been.
