Expedia: The Next Turn - Taking the Plunge

  • Harry McGill

In January of 2022, we flew out to Panama to film a new shippable series with blue chip travel giant Expedia, in collaboration with production company Whitcombe James. As part of the Expedia Group, they are "one of the world's largest full-service travel brands" and they were looking to create something completely new in the travel content genre. Led by our hosts Phil Calvert, Amar Latif, and Marianela, we travelled far and wide alongside the Whitcombe James team, filming all the beauty and adventure of this exotic location. Our trip spanned across five weeks, where we captured the culture, heritage, and array of experiences on offer. The series is comprised of three episodes: One episode, 'Taking The Plunge', edited by us, and two episodes, 'Culture, Customs, Cuisine' and 'A Feast For All The Senses', edited by Whitcombe James. Our episode centres around ocean activities in Panama's idyllic islands. The series as a whole focuses on the beauty and culture of Panama, guaranteed to fill viewers with wanderlust.
