Part of what makes the polar environment so enticing is that there's still so much left to be discovered there. Scientists, and even some brave tourists, make the trek to the Arctic or Antarctica, chasing the chance to create fresh footprints in a part of our world that remains untouched by civilization. Talk about working remote.
Our polar collection provides the perfect backdrop for your winter vision board, and a variety of footage for your next travel project, containing landscapes, wildlife and a taste of life in the tundra. Popularly used as b-roll in travel and nature documentaries, as well as advertising, it takes an intrepid filmmaker to capture arctic footage-especially when braving the elements also means the occasional polar bear encounter. Yikes!
But don't worry about digging out your passport or your snowshoes. Our new video collection
will help you experience everything that awaits in this permanent winter wonderland without breaking the bank on winter gear and travel fees.
