This is a promotional video I recently made for a beautiful Inn dating back to the early 1800’s. Decided to try and do it more “Documentary style”.  I actually shot the couples first visit and then at the end of the stay did an interview to capture their feelings about it. Was meant to be mostly from the female perspective. It really is selling unplugging, relaxing and reconnecting with a spouse as much as this particular place. That’s a little different than most promo videos but I think it worked overall.  It tells a story and that is more interesting I think than just having a narrator tell stats and scripted material about the property.  I also wanted it to be told mainly from the woman’s perspective, finding the song was a key part to giving me the idea on how to put this all together.

The owners of the Inn are friends of mine that I got to know by filming their wedding in lake Placid in 2010!  The couple visiting are also friends of mine that didn’t know the owners or had ever stayed at the Inn before.

Tech details:  Shot with the EOSHD Pro Color 3.0 Picture profile for the SONY A6500 and a SONY A6300 on a Zhiyun Crane gimbal. Also used a edlekrone motorized slider for several shots.
