Buenos Aires, often called the 'Paris of South America', offers stunning backdrops with its neoclassical architecture, artful cafés, and sprawling green spaces. Each distinct neighborhood adds a unique charm, making it a perfect setting for your next production.

7 Seas is the only full-service production company in Colombia's Caribbean, in Cartagena.

Active since 2010, they built a solid roster of unrivaled interior locations in the city itself and on the Rosary Islands, the impossibly beautiful archipelago that surrounds Cartagena. Let's see what The New York Times has to say in their recent '36 hours in Cartagena' special:

"The UNESCO-designated Old Town, Cartagena’s inner walled city, merges historical architecture with modern shops and restaurants, and is often compared to Old San Juan or New Orleans’s French Quarter. Colombia is one of the world’s biggest coffee producers, so no visit is complete without tasting a local brew. Head to the Getsemani neighbourhood — a funkier-in-a-good-way version of Old Town, and just a short walk away."

The latter just wrapped up a shoot for the US fashion company Free People in Chile, combining the backdrops of its Capital, Santiago, with the snow covered Patagonian ski resort of Portillo.

The special focus in this issue is on Colombia. The enchanting city of Cartagena, located on the sunny shores of Colombia's Caribbean coast, offers a captivating blend of history, vibrant culture, and stunning natural beauty. 7 Seas understands perfectly the needs of American and European clients and is the only real photo and video production services located here.

Over the years, productions have been carried out for Bloomingdales, J.Crew, Madewell, Bergdorf Goodmann, For Love and Lemons, Crew Clothing Company and many more.

This year’s focus is on Colombia, a country with a troubled past and a shining future. 7 Seas produces throughout Colombia but focuses on the Caribbean coast, with Cartagena as its point of departure.

7 Seas Productions carries Latin America in its heart and soul. With offices in Cuba, Colombia and Argentina, they not only cover the wider Caribbean including Mexico, but also the stunning European look-a-likes of the South, namely Argentina, Uruguay and also Chile. All these countries are famed for their staggeringly beautiful locations and natural light. It was just a matter of time to include these places in 7 Seas’ portfolio, when setting up the full service photo and video production company with focus on a location data base approach, 20 years ago. Working with a highly talented and young team 7 SeasProductions is creating the best out of productions across Latin America.

Let's dive into highly underrated Colombia as an example: Cartagena is a vibrant, feverish pearl of a city perched on the country’s Caribbean coastline.

Productions have been carried out for Madewell, Bloomingdale's, Bergdorf Goodman, Mercedes, Coca-Cola, Zimmermann, JP Boden and For Love and Lemons.

7 Seas Productions follows fashion around the world. Based in the South of France, they have offices in Cuba, Argentina and Colombia. The latter is turning slowly but constantly into Latin America's most fashionable country. J.Crew's Madewell shot there and then came to Cassis, France, this spring to continue the production journey with 7 Seas.

JP Boden, Mango, Zara and Elle Magazine shot several times with them this year from Biarritz over Arles to Nice. English newcomer Sosandar reopened Cuba with a fashion shoot just after Holiday Magazine left with several productions carried out by 7 Seas for their annual fashion special, titled 'CUBA'.

In 2015, they explored the Alps under the working title 7 Mountains Productions and ever since working with a crew on the ground out of Chamonix for the likes of Net-a-Porter, Dior, Tatler Magazine and Casablanca Paris.

Draw a circle around Paris and look at France's boundaries: that's where 7 Seas Productions is strongest. Biarritz, Île de Ré, Deauville, Marseille, Cannes, Nice, Monaco and not to forget the overwhelmingly beautiful Alps, served by 7 Seas little sister 7 Mountains Productions out of Chamonix. They just finished in October a campaign by NET-A-PORTER with South Korean model Gayoung Ko on a glacier in Switzerland. Pictures – as always- to follow.

Earlier this year they carried out a big film and photo production for Berlin's BWGTBLD GmbH and their client L´Occitane de Provence in Marseille. And France's boundaries don't stop at the frontiers, Mercedes AMG and the Guide Michelin took 7 Seas Productions to San Sebastián, Spain for a Film and Photo production with RAPP Berlin.

The slider shows a campaign for Mango in a Havana-style Villa in Biarritz. The film is an AUDI eTron production around Chamonix, filmed also in Switzerland and Italy.

"Imagine yourself in the enviable position of choosing Cuba or Colombia for your next campaign location. Not a bad dilemma, right? 7 Seas clients often face this choice, so let's weigh up both options for you.

Cuba really is the heart of the Caribbean. It has all the charm you could ever expect, while Havana has the cars, yes! It also has the architecture, in every hue imaginable for photos that truly pop. And the impeccable beaches, like Cayo Coco, are only a short distance from the capital. American clients can forget the political embargos, 7 Seas will take care of everything for a completely carefree production.

Colombia offers what Cuba does, with a handful of small differences. Like Cartagena, here the old and new worlds have collided in beautiful and unexpected ways, evident largely in the plush interiors and grand architecture. Cartagena is also hurricane-free due to its unique location, so don’t let that stop you.

Still not sure? Call 7 Seas today. The team has been producing in this part of the world for over 20 years so they know their stuff. Recent clients include Zimmermann, Hermes and For Love & Lemons, to name a few. Want to be next?"

"Scorching temperatures in Europe and the US are finally upon us, so what’s the dilemma? Where to shoot convincing AW19/20 campaigns and editorials! The answer lies in South America, with 7 Seas Productions. Argentina, Chile and Patagonia are all in the midst of their winter months and the settings are superb.

Positioned in the heart of South America’s largest nature reserve is Seven Lakes. Like all good things, these lakes come in sevens, just as the name suggests. Here there are picturesque mountain backdrops, incredible flora and fauna and wild river rapids - all ideal for winter productions. The 7 Seas team operates out of Barlioche and right now everybody is skiing the snow-capped moutains at Cerro Catedral, South America’s largest ski resort.

Need a glacier? No problem! The region is also home to the Perito Moreno glacier and it’s a stone’s throw south of Bariloche. 

So for a winter destination that’s a little more exotic, think South America and think 7 Seas Productions. Call the team today with your brief!"

Who to call for campaign and editorial productions in Cuba, Colombia and Argentina? 7 Seas Productions, that’s who! Three distinct countries, all linked by a special kind of magic - just ask 7 Seas, who have been taking clients to these parts for over 20 years.

Cuba’s narrative is nowhere more clearly written than on its architecture. The bold coloured houses reflecting the warm locals, the peeling paint revealing a complex past and the restoration of the city’s most precious buildings a sign of a bright future.

Colombia is home to some of the best beaches in Latin America, hands down. Cartagena specifically is having a second coming, catering for the new bourgeois, which is evident in the boutique hotels and private casas in the city centre - all perfect locations for fashion shoots.

Argentina is as diverse as it is captivating. Buenos Aires is made up of many neighborhoods that feel distinctly unique yet also very European.

"Forget the paperwork and leave all of that to 7 Seas. All you need to worry about is choosing where to go!"

With an emphasis on locations to match any brief, 7 Seas has the strongest grips on Colombia, Cuba and Argentina over any other operators in the same region.

Looking closely at Colombia, the time is ripe to come. What did the New York Times write in their weekend January 5th-6th issue? “Colombia gets better and better! The country hums with energy and possibility, offering a thriving environment for creativity." The word is spreading about its unspoiled beauty and photo and film productions are inevitably making their way. Cartagena is the loveliest city in Latin America: the historical atmosphere, the grand interiors, fused with a recent cosmopolitan influence makes for a very inimitable place to capture on film.

Then there’s the Rosario Islands and Santa Marta beaches, as close to a taste of heaven as mortally possible. Here, the water is a perfect turquoise and the sand a brilliant white. Selecting which stretch of beach to shoot a summer campaign or editorial will be about the most challenging part of producing in Colombia.

The laid-back yet cosmopolitan allure of Cartagena first started gaining attention internationally when John Lennon and Yoko Ono arrived in the 70s. Now, Cartagena is a top contender among Latin American vanguard cities. From a production point of view, it's the dynamic architecture, a fusion of colonial chic that is found in the plazas and the colourful houses that line the streets.

Add to this amazing white-sand beaches with wooden jetties, palm trees and private casas along the coast of Cartagena and on the Rosario Islands and you have a complete production wonderland. It has infrastructure, equipment rental and production specialists on the ground ready to open every colonial home and boutique hotel door in the area.

The 7 Seas team first figured out what made the Colombian Caribbean special more than 12 years ago, when they started producing work here - which wasn´t all that hard given one of the team is a native born Colombian! They saw the magic immediately and knew it would translate on film for clients.

Call 7 Seas for advice or even to organise a recce trip to see first-hand. "The only danger in visiting Cartagena is wishing not to leave!"

"Hello, we are 7 Seas Productions. We carry Latin America in our heart and soul. We are a small team of location professionals that work tirelessly to bring you the best of Colombia, Cuba and Argentina. It can get confusing in these location wonderlands, that´s why we rely on our sound location database that helps taking decisions and on our location experts on the ground. 7 Seas is small and swift.

Our most underrated location jewel is Cartagena and the Colombian Caribbean coast. To describe it in a few words is not easy, but here's a try: there are beautiful sand-lined islands off the shores of blue and turquoise waters, amazing houses and mansions on these islands with tasteful interiors. That´s the beach part. Around colonial Cartagena's downtown and boho-chic Getsemaní, there’s no deficiency of boutique hotels, art galleries and exclusive restaurants. Stunning colonial backgrounds guaranteed. And above all: it's safe. Cartagena is Colombia's prized window to the world. Take a closer look at our website and soon we'll be saying '¿hola, qué tal?'”

"Hello! We're 7 Seas Productions, a small team of motivated and mult-lingual  perfectionists who work tirelessly and passionately to produce your amazing art. We work out of France and the Americas, Colombia, Cuba and Argentina so you don't pay travel costs as we're the people on the ground! Our clients see us as more a partner than a supplier, because we can advise not only on the 'how' but also on the 'where'. By offering services and locations, we are among the kind of people who believe that 'too much' is indispensable.

Get everything from one place - many clients book us in France and then come to Cuba. They discover Argentina with us and then come to Colombia. Follow JP Boden, Bloomingdales, J.Crew, Bergdorf Goodman and Mr Porter around the 7 Seas!”

Recent works were carried out for Cabi USA by Matador Productions, Wellendorff Jewellers, Pure Collection UK, Ellesse, and Mr. Porter."

"Do you want to be in the driver’s seat for Latin American productions?"

7 Seas Productions is the first international production services to set foot in Colombia, with an office situated in Cartagena on the Colombian Caribbean coast. Recently described by the New York Times as being Tulum 2.0, Cartagena is fast becoming the next location hotspot.

Cartagena’s character is contained in two small, stunningly photogenic neighbourhoods: the walled colonial Old City and the rising barrio Getsemaní. Offshore Cartagena, one finds 28 islands protected by a reef, with shimmering blue-green waters and villas that overlook the shoreline.

Colombia is “Film Friendly” and the Colombian Caribbean is very safe. Daily flights from NYC, Fort Lauderdale and Miami make it an easy access shoot destination. A good deal of photo and film infrastructure already exists locally -and keeps growing-. Anything else can be found easily in Bogotá.

7 Seas also has offices based in Buenos Aires and Havana.

7 Seas covers production services across Latin America. As interest in the continent's shooting destinations grows, the company looks into market niches and seeks to position itself at the very heart of the action.

With offices in Buenos Aires, Havana, Cartagena and (coming soon) Panama, 7 Seas' destinations have everything the fashion and advertising world needs. From hyper-modern to Colonial architectural gems, grand interiors and ornate facades, clients can discover paradise islands complete with stunning beaches, palm tree backdrops, and colourful huts overlooking jetties.

It's all there waiting on the Colombian Caribbean coast, stretching from Cartagena to Santa Marta and beyond. Year-round, Cartagena plays host to film festivals and beauty pageants, presidents and celebrities - and most of all, it is a safe place with daily flights from Europe and the US making it an easy-access destination.

Recent productions include Bergdorf Goodman, Garnet Hill, J.Crew, Madewell, Bonprix, Crew Clothing and Bonobos.

Founded in 1999, 7 Seas Productions offers high quality production services across the Caribbean, with a focus on Colombia and Cuba. With Havana making front pages lately for good reasons, today’s focus is now on Colombia, particularly Cartagena.

Other Caribbean destinations have become very popular, especially for North American and European clients seeking diversity from the well known looks offered by Miami and Mexico. Hence this is why Cartagena is turning into the next great Latin American shooting destination.

With pristine beaches speckled over the islands of the Rosario Archipelago, deliciously fresh seafood and a cheery atmosphere, this colonial UNESCO World Heritage Site experiences almost year-round sunshine (punctuated by the occasional biblical rainstorm) and consistent summer temperatures. Cartagena has character - lush plazas, fruit vendors and street art are all contained in two small, impossibly photogenic neighbourhoods: the walled Old City and the rising barrio Getsemaní.

7 Seas has completed recent productions in both countries for Bloomingdales, David's Bridal, JP Boden, Simons of Canada, J.Crew, Mercedes AMG Magazine, Bergdorf Goodman, Havana Club and Garnet Hill.

7 Seas Productions offers high-quality production services across the Caribbean with a focus on Colombia and Cuba. Established in the late 90s, it has consistently focused on building the profiles of Colombia and Cuba - against all odds. It has championed for Colombia despite the reputation of drug trafficking and Marxist guerrillas and has shown that Cuba has more than just a left leaning communist regime.

Now, both countries have become strong, vibrant players in their own league and offer the best of two location worlds in the wider “Caribbean Republic”. Although they may appear to have much in common, such as the colonial cities and beaches, there are many important differences worth knowing.

7 Seas counsels its clients on these differences, according to the photographic needs of the brief, seasonal climates and special locations required. Cartagena for instance as the jewel of the Colombian Caribbean is as vanguard now as Acapulco, Mexico was in the 50s.

Recent productions have been carried out for J.Crew, Bloomingdales, Bonobos, Garnet Hill, JP Boden, Town & Country, Simons, Mercedes AMG Magazine, Otto and Bergdorf Goodman.

Amidst the flamboyant Colombian Caribbean, 7 Seas Productions provides video and photo production services as well as fantastic locations for foreign-based clients. The company is located outside the old city walls of Cartagena, one of the most beautiful colonial cities in Latin America.

Self-declared 'film friendly', Colombia offers an abundance of shoot location opportunities. The cobbled streets and lively squares in the urban areas offer a colourful backdrop, while private home interiors and boutique hotels provide a luxurious space for storytelling.

Not far from Cartagena lie some great island locations that are as mystical as the turquoise sea that surrounds them. Lining their shores are white sand beaches scattered with palm trees, where villas and wooden beach houses stand directly by the water.

With direct flights from the US and good connections from Europe, there are no limitations when it comes to finding the perfect location in Colombia.

Clients 7 Seas Productions has helped to discover this amazing place include Bergdorf Goodman, Bonobos, Bonprix, Elle France, J.Crew and Madewell.

Chamonix is a 365 days a year winter destination. Surrounded by glaciers and blessed with the most vertical mountains of the Alps; it's like a big sports university with 8000 students, the actual number of its inhabitants.

The most diverse mountain activities are everywhere. Together with neighbouring Mégève and Courmayeur on the Italian Mont Blanc side it offers an endless amount of incredible alpine backdrops, amazing châlets for indoors and outdoors productions and all-year-round wintery moods. Alpine pastures and crystal clear lakes and rivers round off a region whose main village, Chamonix also offers beautiful backgrounds of nature.

7 Seas Productions developed this region together with local mountain guides and ski instructors, thus securing a tight grip on locations and safety.

Recent winter productions took place from May to August for Primark, French Elle and Bonprix.

"Winter has come!"

With offices in Cuba, Argentina, Colombia and the South of France, 7 Seas is capable of fulfilling almost every production brief in some of the most exceptional shooting locations on the planet. The variety of locations enables the company to guide clients and other production companies as to which country, region and city is best for their shoot. 

The hand-picked team, attention to detail, extensive location database and multiple languages spoken by the crew are just some of the company's valuable assets.

Be it fashion, advertising, car productions for stills or TV, 7 Seas pulls it together in time, on budget, and with a highly experienced crew.

Photo and video productions in the last 6 months include BMW, ELLE US on the Côte d´Azur, Primark in Chamonix / Mont-Blanc, Bergdorf Goodman and David's Bridal in Colombia, Breuninger, ZÜRICH and Bonprix in Argentina and Uruguay, and Conleys and Publicis for George in Cuba.

With offices in Argentina, Cuba and Colombia, 7 Seas covers an interesting part of Latin America, being able to advise and counsel clients on where to go according to their brief. While Cuba and Argentina have their solid place on the production map, the location-rich and versatile Colombian Caribbean is yet to be discovered.

Cartagena's character is contained in two impossibly photogenic neighbourhoods: the walled Old City and the rising barrio Getsemaní. Located here are the cities most refined restaurants, lush plazas, fruit vendors and street art. The coastline and its 36 islands offer splendid beaches, turquoise waters, driftwood and rounded rocks, together with wooden beach villas or colourfully painted huts. 7 Seas is the first real international production service to open an office in Cartagena.

Recent productions have been carried out for J.Crew, Bergdorf Goodman, David's Bridal and Bonprix (Otto Group).
