I make cinematic travel films and travel photography, in France and internationally: more than 12 countries covered so far, including Iceland, Norway, Japan, Oman and Spain. Work also extends to hospitality, culinary and wildlife.
A good travel film doesn't show everything: it chooses. The trap of the format is a pile-up of handsome shots with no thread, pleasant for ten seconds and interminable thereafter.
My Iceland and Norway films each start from one simple idea, northern lights and volcanoes in one case, chasing the aurora through the fjords in the other, and everything else serves that idea. That constraint is what makes a film hold up beyond the pretty picture.
Travel film has direct professional uses: presenting a hotel or an estate, showcasing a restaurant, documenting a destination for a tourist board or an agency.
These formats follow the same rules as personal work, one idea, one rhythm, with the addition of brand and messaging constraints defined during scoping.
On a landscape, the drone isn't an effect: it's often the only way to convey the measure of a place, the reach of a lava field, the depth of a fjord, the scale of a coastline.
As everywhere, feasibility depends on local regulations, which vary considerably from country to country and are checked destination by destination before departure.
