Stad Veurne - How to make a picturesque city attractive with award-winning branded content?

Veurne, from Steenkerke to Houtem, to everywhere around and in between! With its amazing picturesque buildings, landmark attractions, community, and unparalleled history as the nation’s “Boeteprocessie", Veurne is one of Belgium’s most diverse cities.

Promoting city assets with a high-energy, diverse, and unpredictable film production.

'Zoveel Veurne' was developed by the communication department of the city Veurne, led by director Tom Van Rompaey. A new city branding strategy based on cultural events, values, and community participation aims to enhance Veurne's attractiveness as a destination for cultural tourism, and local economic businesses and to sustain local livelihood.

Through adventure, culture, leisure, and sport, the city had the opportunity to create a specific image, add value to different areas, and highlight emblematic places in the city which attract diversified audiences. We crafted an immersive, sensory-driven approach to tell the story of Zoveel Veurne. The result: a seamless moving premium video production with aerial cinematography that relies on a mix of traditional film techniques.
