Video Production for Tourism Operators

An experience film follows a guest through the activity, from arrival to the moment they will remember. Production Retainers from $1,500 NZD a month.

For tourism operators

Billie plans it around the real experience, shoots it with guests or talent, and delivers versions for the website, booking platforms and trade.

What Billie makes

  • Hero experience film
  • Trade and agent version without voiceover
  • Subtitled versions for international markets
  • Short booking page clips

On the shoot

Conservation land permits

Commercial filming on public conservation land needs authorisation from the Department of Conservation, so locations on DOC land are checked and permitted before the shoot.

Weather windows

Outdoor experiences depend on the weather, so shoots are planned with backup days and a forecast-driven call the day before.

The service

Billie handles video from the first idea to the final export: concept, scripting, casting, the shoot itself, edit, colour and sound. One team carries the project the whole way, so the story you sign off on at the start is the one that ends up on screen.

What’s included

  • Concept and scripting
  • Location scouting and casting
  • Shoot crew and camera
  • Edit, colour grade and sound mix
  • Cut-downs for every platform

Which retainer suits

Essential at $1,500 NZD a month suits a small operator that needs one session a month to keep social and booking pages current. Creative at $3,000 NZD a month suits an operator running several experiences or seasonal campaigns, and Studio Partner, on enquiry, suits a larger tourism business with international and trade audiences. A single hero film for a new experience can be quoted as Bespoke Production.
