We make films abouts boats and seafarers. We tell stories that honor voyages of passengers and crew, the mystery of the sea and grit under sail.
What story would you like to tell?
We offer to guide you, a boater, through a session where you share your experiences on the ocean. This conversation unfolds informally while you helm a craft underway. We film the excursion both from onboard the boat and from aerial views. Which become a short film, narrated in part by your words, the light shines brighter on the boat or the boater as you like.
Our value to boat sellers is that a story makes a good boat look great. Pacific Boat Films produces engaging media. We propose that our maritime media gains more inquiries and shortens inventory times.
Pacific Boat Films showcases the spirit of voyage. With a fine eye we demonstrate the luxury of details, the professionalism of your crew, for the comfort and ease of your guests.
Our approach varies based on objective, but shares some common features, like including video of your vessel underway onboard and views from above. In some projects we may sit for an interview and talk about a person's experience, maritime lifestyle, or the history of a vessel. Some projects ask us to draw focus on the makeup of a featured craft and a tour of the cabin.
The result of our project is a 5-7 minute narrative film.
Our production team travels to locations worldwide.
