ABOUT

OUR HISTORY

Bahía Visual began in 2013, during an expedition to a mystical bay located in the pacific coast of Colombia. The co-founders of Bahía Visual ventured to this natural paradise to discover untold stories about ancient rituals that were still practiced in the area and tales of treasures left behind by pirates that buried them on its beaches. 

Juan Camilo García, with his experience as a film director in Spain, and Juan Manuel Vásquez, with his background as a journalist and music producer, created a team with three natural strengths: empathy to connect with people, a detailed and artistic approach to cinematography and a special sensitivity to sound. This is the origin of Bahia Visual’s cinematic approach to content production.

 

The unexpected result of this journey to the colombian pacific coast was the documentary short film “Omligados en Jurubirá”. It was screened in national movie theaters in Colombia, received 14 official selections at festivals around the world and won 3 awards in the documentary category.

After watching this moving short film, some marketing directors invited us to apply our vision as filmmakers to the world of brands. This opportunity enabled us to hone our process and improve our human approach to video production. We started to notice our videos were getting a strong and positive emotional connection from viewers and brands were getting better results.

Now, we create cinematic videos for several industries: tourism, fashion, tech companies, advertising agencies and international clients. Our purpose is to create authentic high-end videos to help elevate brands and amplify their message in digital media.
