Credit: 1st Unit Co-Director | 2nd Unit Director | Senior Producer
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Holland America Line’s private island, Half Moon Cay, they wanted to do something special. I worked closely with the marketing team at Holland America to film 12 activities, bars and dining options over 5 days with 4 actors and 4 teams of photography (principle, drone, 360 and still). The result was enough gorgeous, evergreen content to be able to promote the island for years to come.
