The Faroe Islands are located in the North Atlantic, geographically halfway between Scotland and Iceland. These islands are a part of the Kingdom of Denmark. The archipelago, made up of 18 islands, with only 50,000 inhabitants, is a rocky area with steep slopes, usually surrounded by thick fog. The weather is windy. It offers ideal locations for audiovisual productions or photographic shootings with a mystical, magical or mysterious factor.
Among the many deserts that exist in the world, we focus today on the Namib Desert, one of the few with a variety of spectacular scenery.
We can find locations as an area of dead trees in the desert (Dead Vlei), giant dunes (Sossusvlei), rugged areas that look like from another planet, and also species adapted to the lack of water.
If you are thinking of an risky audiovisual production or photographic shooting, different and with extreme conditions, this is your place.

The creative concept was in charge of the advertising agency Fred & Farid under the claim “Play Anywhere” in which a mission was created for the Artengo team: test the limits of its product overcoming different terrains and weather conditions on Iceland with the guide of Oli, an expert in the geology of this country.
To overcome the challenge, two tests took place. The first one made near deep lake shores with low temperaturas and surrounded by dazzling glaciars; and the second test made under rocky terrain enframed by mountains, cliffs and extraordinary waterfalls.
