Case Study: Capturing the Essence of Suzhou Gardens
In a recent project, we partnered with an international luxury brand to film a commercial in the iconic Humble Administrator’s Garden in Suzhou. Our team handled everything from securing special access permits to coordinating complex drone shots that highlighted the garden’s intricate layouts and water features. We worked closely with local authorities to ensure minimal disruption to visitors while capturing the perfect golden hour footage.
