We are proud to announce a spectacular result at Art&Tur! Our five awards were in two categories. In the National Competition, we won 1st prize in Arts & Creativity, Innovation in Tourism - 1st prize & Technical Quality - Joint 1st. Then in the International Competition - Innovation in Tourism - 1st prize and finally - Arts & Creativity 2nd prize.
Earlier this year, we were thrilled to learn that we had been shortlisted asa nominee in The 14th edition of the ART&TUR - International Tourism FilmFestival in Aveiro! We never conceived of winning five awards!
As you can imagine, we are thrilled with the results and feel incredibly honoured!
The nominated production was for our promotional video Sky Base One that tells the story of a movie inspired villa that is now being built in Carvoeiro. The inspiration behind the villa's design was the MilleniumFalcon spaceship in Star Wars, and it appears to have crash-landed onto the Seaview plot in Lagoa.
The video shows a story of a young girl drawing the spaceship and showing it to her Architect Father, Alexandre Mendes of Bespoke Architects (also located in Carvoeiro). Then, the Father begins to draw the sketches of the villa and the girls drawing becomes a reality.
We are truly thrilled to have received somany awards for our Sky Base One video!I'd like to thank Daniel, Nissan & Peter forcreating such a unique piece!-

It's a story of imagination and living life outside the realms of convention and the confinements of tradition. The team at Spy Manor Productions were led by the vision of founder Vanda Everke who could well be the little girl in the video as he has boundless vision and a very healthy imagination. Together with Director & Editor Daniel James Clarke, Head of Content Developer Nissan Stern and Creative Producer Peter Ogunsalu, they established the concept and script, and our vision became a reality.
Perhaps not initially apparent, we are promoting the Algarve and Portugal as a destination where dreams can come true through the video.
