From the Ridge to the Reef
The three films in this campaign are motivated by the idea of a self-love—a realisation of the need to be kinder to your own body and mind. We see the Philippines as a beautiful place for visitors to be revitalised mentally and physically as they traverse and swim “from the ridge to the reef” of this ancient archipelago.
We traveled across three provinces, shooting for a total of five days with the support of our incredible local crew.
This was the first video campaign by the department of tourism Philippines after they adopted their new slogan:
Love the Philippines.
