FILMS

by Annika Zimmermann

WILD BLUE LODGE - SOUTH AFRICA

For Wild Blue Lodge in South Africa, I produced a cinematic brand film that captures the magic and romance of the location. Through warm light, African sunsets, and a strong sense of atmosphere, the film conveys what it feels like to arrive, slow down, and belong. Created as a hero film for the website, it invites future guests to connect emotionally with the lodge before they even arrive.

ALLBIRDS - PRODUCT FILM

For Allbirds and Chris Sports in Switzerland, I produced a cinematic product film and photo series in Uganda. The project places everyday footwear into real movement and varied environments, creating authentic, emotionally grounded visual context. Created for website and online use, the visuals highlight the product through lived experience rather than staged scenarios.

SHARK DIVING - TESTIMONIAL

In collaboration with Real Hawaii Tours and Go Adventure Hawaii, I filmed a testimonial showcasing a shark diving experience at Oahu’s North Shore. As a creative director and videographer, I managed a small team, captured stunning underwater footage, and operated my drone from the boat to document this extraordinary adventure in the most immersive way.

NGONYAM SAFARI LODGE - SOUTH AFRICA

In just one day of shooting, I created a cinematic film for Ngonyam Safari Lodge in South Africa. Set on a lake within a big game reserve, the film captures the wild spirit, stillness, and raw beauty of this unique place. The result is an immersive visual experience that helps future guests understand the atmosphere of the lodge and connect with it before their stay.

SEVEN SENSES SAFARIS - TESTIMONIAL

Extraordinary experiences, like a safari, are best described by those who have lived them. That’s why I created a testimonial film to bring Seven Senses Safaris in South Africa to life through real customer experiences. The film showcases what makes the personalized adventures of ranger Claudia Schnell so unique – personal, exclusive, and deeply moving.

CIELO LODGE - COSTA RICA

On behalf of Cielo Lodge – an exclusive eco-luxury retreat nestled in the lush rainforest of Costa Rica – I produced a cinematic hero film that captures the essence of sustainable luxury. I crafted an immersive visual narrative that captures Cielo Lodge’s essence - serenity, sustainability, and exclusivity. The final film is featured on their official website as part of the main landing page experience.

TRAUMTRACHTEN FASHION SHOW

For the premiere of the new TraumTrachten collection by Vikki Kopets at Hotel Bayerischer Hof, I produced a high-quality after-movie. Amidst an audience of distinguished guests, exquisite traditional fashion was showcased against an elegant backdrop. With dynamic shots and stylish close-ups, the film captures the event’s unique atmosphere – festive, inspiring, and timeless.

IWHY WE TRAVEL - TRAVEL FILM

This channel trailer for Ayo World invites viewers to explore the meaning of travel through cinematic storytelling. Why We Travel shows that travel is more than destinations – it’s about curiosity, culture, and the stories that change how we see the world. 

SOUTH HORIZON - DESIGN PROJECT

When art meets architecture, spaces come to life. Commissioned by Hammer AG and the Optima-Aegidius Group, I documented the stunning wall design by Rafael Gerlach (SatOne) at the South Horizon building in Munich. The film showcases the creation of the graffiti artwork – from the first sketch to the vibrant, transformed staircase of this modern building.

SIYAM WORLD MALDIVES - RESORT GUIDE

Siyam World is one of the largest resorts in the Maldives, offering an impressive variety of experiences. To give guests a clear overview, I collaborated with the Sun Siyam Group to produce a hotel guide for the Ayo World format. The video blends stunning visuals with key insights, showcasing the resort’s highlights - from luxury accommodations to world-class dining and exciting activities
