Queenstown New Zealand

GoPro Travel Film

Scenic fairytale landscapes and soaring mountain ranges are just some of the incredible experiences New Zealand has to offer – but Queenstown is fuelled by adrenaline and extreme sports. This is what went down.

Cardrona, Coronet Peak, and the Remarkables

New Zealand boasts an unimaginably beautiful landscape. Its soaring mountain ranges, scenic fairytale landscapes are the crown jewel of Oceanic territory. But rolling landscapes is not all it has to offer. Queenstown is adrenaline junkie heaven and delivers a rugged action-packed extreme sports experience. New Zealand finds itself the backbone of many modern day Instagram repost accounts – and it’s understandable why. It’s not to be described, it’s to be seen.

Queenstown New Zealand Ski Slopes

The perfect recipe for an action-packed travel vlog. During a uni ski trip, I took my trusty GoPro action camera up on the slopes with me and launched myself straight into the social-film-cine-vlog hybrid that had been kicking the rounds on YouTube at the time.

The film was produced in Final Cut Pro X with motion graphics from Apple Motion 5, and the entire film was captured on a GoPro Hero 5, a testament to the often untapped potential of the tiny action camera.
