china travel video
This travel video is a more than 3 hour presentation of a trip done in China. Our intention was to show an interesting and pretty intense itinerary, which we were able to cover in a little more than 2 weeks. We wanted to shoot a travelog, a long form documentary about this particular trip making it different from the regular documentaries you may see on TV . We covered a lot of ground in the narration associated with the film: from history to legends, architecture and the zen traditions, customs and religions we tried as much as possible to approach most of the issues you encounter in such a trip.
The travel video is the result of a lot of research and documentation we did before we left there, but also of a lot of information we got on site, talking to people or listening to the stories coming from the locals. We shot a lot of footage and we ended up editing it to make a very pleasant and attractive presentation.
If you have any intention
to visit these areas or other parts of China, or if you know for sure that
you will never get there, watching this film will bring you the experience
of being half there.
If you want to visit China the best option is to fly. The unbelievable competition
between the numerous airlines makes the tickets to be available and extremely
attractive. The language may be an impediment, very few people speaking English
or any other foreign language but the people's determination to do business
would definitely help you when you travel around the country. Another good
option of moving around the country are the new, airconditioned sleeper trains.
Food is abundant and very safe, being relatively similar with lots of dishes
of Chinese cuisine you may find in the West.
If you are interested to find specifics about the trip or about the video please contact us. We will be more than happy to share with you our experience.
