Windstar Cruises commissioned Roger Paperno to create a series of still and video assets that would capture the essence of their luxury small-ship experience in French Polynesia. The goal was to highlight the unique access Windstar provides to secluded lagoons, cultural encounters, and intimate onboard experiences—not easily achievable on larger vessels.
To evoke a deep sense of place and scale, Roger employed a hybrid shooting strategy—utilizing cinematic camera systems, compact formats, and drone technology—tailored to the unique conditions of the islands and the ship itself.
