STORY: Our team will travel to Rhodes to make a running film on this spectacular island recently devastated by wild fires.

We will include news footage and archival footage to tell the story of the running community on Rhodes.

LOCATION: Rhodes, Greece.

EXAMPLE

We created a 20 minute film for Hong Kong Science Festival about how we use drones to 3D model glaciers. The film looked at the current way we monitor glaciers and how new technology can help us look at how glaciers are changing and what that means for the local people.
