Tiny Village Cartagena
DOCUSERIES
Tiny Village Cartagena is a boutique resort being developed just off the coast of Cartagena, Colombia by entrepreneur Akil King. I had the pleasure of consulting on the project, developing content that told Akil’s amazing story as well as built excitement before the projects launch. We collaborated with local Colombian production company, Pedraza Producciones, to bring this series to life.
