Sport, outdoor & destinations
Video production for sport, outdoor projects and destinations
A sport or outdoor film needs to capture the effort, the setting and the emotion while serving a clear purpose: website, social media, ticket sales, destination marketing or a brand campaign.
Sporting events
Create an aftermovie that captures the energy of the crowd, the intensity of the action and the defining moments, with content ready to promote the next edition. See the Dragons en Camargue case study.
Outdoor brands
Film a product or activity where it is actually used, then cut the footage for each platform.
Field experience across Switzerland and France
Registered drone pilot
Smooth aerial footage planned around the location, safety requirements and current regulations to give outdoor projects a stronger sense of scale.
Mobility & demanding conditions
On ski slopes, at sea or away from easy access, I use a lightweight setup that lets me follow the action and move with the terrain.

Frequently asked questions
Strategy & formats
3 questionsHow can video engage a community of enthusiasts?
In outdoor and sport, people respond to effort, escape and emotion as much as to the event or product itself. I centre the film on an athlete, a destination or a shared challenge so it speaks to the people who already care about that world.
Why is vertical video important for outdoor and sport content?
Much of the audience for sport and tourism content watches on a phone, especially on Instagram and TikTok. Vertical framing fills the screen and makes the content easier to watch without turning the device. Planning for this from the shoot helps every format feel intentional.
Can you produce both vertical and horizontal content?
Yes. An event can be planned to deliver vertical recaps for social media while it is still taking place, alongside the official 16:9 film for your website or YouTube.
Terrain & conditions
3 questionsOur event covers several kilometres in the mountains. How do you film it?
That is one of the main challenges of filming outdoors. I review the route and topography with you beforehand to identify the strongest filming positions. Depending on the terrain, I can move by e-bike, skis, canoe, hang glider or vehicle to anticipate the athletes. For larger events, I can bring in a trusted second camera operator.
Do you handle drone permissions for outdoor events?
Yes. As a professional drone pilot registered with the French DGAC, I prepare and submit the required declarations in advance for flights in built-up areas, around the public, near protected natural areas or close to airports. Swiss projects are assessed under the applicable local requirements.
What happens if the weather is poor on the filming day?
Mountain weather can change quickly. If the conditions make a drone flight unsafe or prevent the required landscape shots, we reschedule the shoot without an additional rescheduling fee. For fixed-date sporting events, I adapt the ground-camera setup to the conditions.
Rights & pricing
3 questionsWill we receive usage rights for our communication campaigns?
Yes. Clear usage rights are essential. Quotes for tourism organisations, local authorities, event organisers and outdoor brands define the agreed usage so the final film or aftermovie can be shared confidently across websites, social media and trade shows.
Can you provide photography as well as video?
Yes. I can occasionally provide photography alongside video, depending on the production setup and the specific requirements of the shoot.
How much does a sport, outdoor or tourism film cost?
The budget depends on the number of filming days, drone requirements, mobility, deliverables and editing complexity. I send a detailed quote within 48 hours.
Production guarantees
A clear framework before, during and after filming
Every project is prepared within a professional framework: location constraints, safety, usage rights, delivery formats and the schedule are clarified before production begins.
As a professional drone pilot, I check flight zones, local restrictions, weather, required authorisations and ground-based alternatives when flying is not appropriate.
Each shoot is planned with safety in mind: location checks, access, permissions, suitable equipment and professional insurance for work with companies, agencies and venues.
Brief, recce, shot list, filming, editing, colour grading, graphics and exports: each step is structured to remove uncertainty and keep the project moving smoothly.
Delivery formats, editing timelines, included feedback rounds, social media versions and usage rights are set out in the quote, so the intended use of the video is clear from the start.
