BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

A cinematic journey across Albania, captured from the ground and the sky.

Over 4,000 km through the country — from the Albanian Alps, Theth and Maja Jezercë to Shkodër, Lake Koman, the Shala River, Gjipe, Lurë National Park, Berat and many places in between.

This film combines traditional aerial cinematography, FPV, 360° drone footage, hyperlapses, timelapses and ground-based shots into one continuous 5-minute journey.

Shot with DJI Mavic 4 Pro, DJI Avata 360, DJI Osmo Pocket 3, DJI Osmo Action 4 and DJI Osmo Action 6.

A huge part of this project was built around movement and transitions — some planned directly on location, others created later in post-production to connect completely different parts of Albania into one continuous visual experience.

This is one of my biggest personal projects so far and probably the closest I’ve come to putting my entire filmmaking skillset into a single travel film.
