Behind the Scenes of the Breitling Super AVI Commercial: A Director’s Insight

In the Breitling Super AVI campaign, my focus as director was entirely on capturing the thrilling air-to-air sequences that showcased the planes and pilots, bringing aviation history to life. The collection itself honors legendary aircraft, and our goal was to reflect that in the aerial shots that embodied both the power and grace of flight.

The behind-the-scenes video highlights the coordination and teamwork involved in filming these sequences. We worked closely with experienced pilots to choreograph complex maneuvers that allowed us to capture the raw beauty of these aircraft in motion. From breathtaking flybys to intimate cockpit perspectives, each shot required precision and planning to translate the essence of aviation into a visual story.

While the team handled the close-ups of Breitling’s iconic watches, my focus was fully dedicated to the sky, ensuring that the planes and pilots were captured in all their glory. The result is a commercial that ties together the heritage of aviation with the craftsmanship of Breitling.
