Acquafilms
About
Based in Antigua during the winter season, Acquafilms has been serving the superyacht and charter industry since 2005, producing high-definition films that capture the beauty and character of yachts in the way that still photography alone cannot. The company travels worldwide during the summer, bringing specialist stabilised-camera filmmaking to regattas, charter programmes and superyacht sales campaigns across the globe.
Charter and promotional films
For yachts available for charter or sale, a well-crafted film is widely regarded as the most compelling marketing tool available. Acquafilms combines careful cinematography with creative editing, narrative and high-quality still photography to give prospective clients a genuine feel for the vessel — its atmosphere, scale and style — rather than simply a visual walkthrough. The result is a promotional piece that encourages an emotional connection with the yacht before a client has ever stepped aboard.
Regatta and event coverage
Acquafilms is well established within the Antigua regatta calendar, with credits that include the RORC Caribbean 600, the Antigua Superyacht Challenge and the Antigua Charter Yacht Show. For race organisers and event hosts, the company offers same-day or next-day footage suitable for replay in hospitality areas, a highlights reel timed for the prizegiving ceremony, a web trailer for post-event promotion, and a full-length regatta film for sale or distribution to participants. This layered approach gives competitors and sponsors alike a lasting record of their event.
Safety and introduction films
For charter yachts, Acquafilms also produces introduction and safety films — a thorough and consistent way to familiarise guests with the vessel's layout and brief them on safety features before departure. These films are practical tools for professional charter operations and form part of a growing library of content that many yachts commission on a recurring basis.
Stock footage and news
An archive of footage covering numerous yachts, boat shows and marine events is available for licensing. Acquafilms can also supply edited news pieces, raw footage and interview segments for yachting publications and websites — a service that has grown steadily in demand across the industry.
