The shoot

The Marco Polo sells a feeling: setting off, stopping wherever it is beautiful and staying there. The trailer focuses on calm, wide images and moments at the vehicle rather than speed.

The press reel shows the facelift where it belongs – on the valley road, in the bends and in front of the Silvretta peaks. Two vehicles, two films per model, one team: that is how a production saves travel days and keeps the look consistent.

How JRJR supports automotive productions

JRJR was founded by Jan Radt and Jochen Riehm. On productions like this, we bring the two of us and our network around the car:

  • Direction and camera
  • Car-to-car filming – on schwäble + wolf productions often alongside a Filmotechnic U-Crane
  • Precision drivers who hit marks and speeds take after take
  • Car prep that keeps every car camera-ready
  • Drone and FPV for aerial and close dynamic shots
