Join Beixin and Robin, the creative duo behind Eurthe, for an engaging afternoon exploring the craft of cinematic storytelling through place. Drawing from their experience creating travel and nature films, they'll share their approach to building atmosphere, observing the natural world, and capturing a sense of place.

This hands-on workshop focuses on building immersive travel films that bring viewers into the heart of a location. Participants learn how observation and storytelling turn real environments into cinematic experiences that feel deeply present and alive. This workshop is suited for photographers, filmmakers, and creatives looking to develop more immersive, place-driven storytelling.
