Scope & engagement details
Scott Lake Lodge is a remote fly-in fishing lodge. Our destination film follows the trip in the order a guest lives it: the flight in, the lakes and the fish, the lodge itself, and the people who make the trip.

Inside the experience
Tell it in the order it happens.
01Start where the trip starts.
The film opens on the floatplane: the propeller, the pilot’s hand on the throttle, and the island from the air. Viewers arrive the way guests do.
02Give the fishing room.
Guides, boats, pike, and lake trout carry the middle of the film, from the net to the release and below the surface.
03End with the people.
Staff and guests speak on camera, and the last shot is the deck over the lake at sunset.
The whole trip
Watch the
whole film.
Four minutes and forty-eight seconds, sound on: the flight in, the fishing, the lodge, and the people who run it.
Some places deserve the whole screen.Film description
Floatplanes land and take off on northern lakes. Guides and guests run aluminum boats, cast, and land pike and lake trout. Aerials follow islands, forest, and the lodge from above, and a black bear passes through the trees. Staff and guests speak on camera in the lodge and outdoors. The film closes on guests relaxing on a deck over the lake at sunset.
