About The Battle of Lepanto Documentary
A documentary on the Battle of Lepanto, which took place in 1571, and the great victory of the Christians against the Ottomans. This was a production that was created for the Ionian Islands Regional Unit of Greece in 2021.
I produced and did the video post-production for this documentary which had many challenges as we had a very short span of time from the pre-production to the post-production.
It was an amazing experience traveling to Naupaktos, Messolonghi, Corfu and the Echinades islands with our crew. We had a lot of fun, and even had a few funny accidents, like when our drone fell to the bottom of the sea while filming in the Echinades islands. We had to do a search and rescue, which ended up being a success!
