Iceland: Arctic Productions
“2022 was a great year for us, we got to work on amazing productions such as NBC and Peacock's new TV show called “The Geography of Bliss” starring Rainn Wilson, where we serviced them on their Iceland episode.
As well as the new docu-series “Hope in the Water” produced by David E. Kelley and Andrew Zimmern, where we explored the abundance of innovative opportunities to restore our world’s oceans while responsibly producing food.
We had our summer season filled with fashion photo-shoots for clients such as; Chanel, Harper’s Bazaar, Peek & Cloppenburg, Overland sheepskin and many more.
Last fall right before our migratory birds flew off to warmer climates we had our team travel to the Westman Islands to cover the story of the“Puffling Patrol” for National Geographic, Puffling Patrol has been an annual tradition for decades as residents rescue confused baby puffins that are leaving their nest for their first time.
We are excited to see what 2023 will bring us”.

Portugal: ZOF
"And here we are: almost 15 years creating films and making scenes. Always fighting to create new stories and produce films.
These past year was the ultimate test for our ecosystem. We immersed in creative storms and found ways to get where we wanted to be. Aiming for the future while growing as a production and service company. We upgraded the office, restructured the team, invested in people and equipment, more isles for editing purposes - and it paid off. We edited a lot of content for foreign clients, shot several music videos and added more muscle to our studio capabilities.
Every day we get to the office it’s always a fresh start: writing, directing, creating, shooting and producing for advertising, brand content, corporate and institutional films, renting our studio and equipment, opening our brains for new business ideas and focus on our goal.
We make films. We are ZOF."
