We are Mark and Judith from Travelmonster Media. We are two Creative Directors from the Netherlands. Started in 2017 but leaving our management careers definitively behind in 2019, we have been traveling the world as Fulltime Content Creators ever since, fueled by our sense of wondering and wanderlust.
Fired by a deep desire to see and experience more. We have made a conscious and dedicated decision to live life as an adventure. We are committed to showing everyone the planet’s raw and unfiltered beauty. And we combine that commitment with a strong passion to inspire by an environmentally conscious and ethical approach to luxury and sustainable travel.
And so Travelmonster was born, a brand that celebrates traveling, creating, and environmental responsibility at the same time. What started as a small international travel community on SocialMedia slowly but steadily grew into what now falls under the Travelmonster Media Group.
For almost five years we have been creating content for the greatest brands in the world in the sustainability, luxury travel, destination marketing, and lifestyle branch. In order to maintain and uphold the strong connection with our following we only work with brands we love, that are genuine, that we stand behind, and that fit into our travel and lifestyle vision.
In these five years, we have had the luxury of growing our loyal and fun online travel community to a combined total of over 300.000 followers, which is growing daily. It is our continued mission to bring travel experiences to life in deeper, richer, and more meaningful ways.
We provide professional Content Creation Services for a very specific branch. We have unique expertise in Luxury Travel, Sustainability, Travel & Lifestyle and Destination Marketing. Our team always consists of a minimum of two persons and maximum of 6 persons which greatly enhances our flexibility to create faster or more content pending on potential time sensitive requirements that may exist based on seasonal occupancy.
Every project starts by discussing your idea’s and the core values of the business. Then we determine the goal and the platform for which we will create content. This will help us set video duration, the inclusion or exclusion of models, size of our team and guides us to the portrait or horizontal format. In our next step we start on a moodboard and shotlist based on the idea’s we collectively come up with
Package will be optimized for high resolution photo’s in an even mix of portrait and horizontal content. All Content can be adjusted to the copywriting. We will make more close-ups of mood objects, food and staff. We can make full written articles and brochures as well
All Content will be focused on desktop and mobile versions of the website. Content and format will be adjusted to the website. Content has the goal to be more informative potential clients. We can potentially build you a landing-age, website or newsletter as well.
We will capture powerful video reels, images and storytemplates with potential high impact specifically tailored to the fast paced nature of social media.
Before we start the project the model rights will be signed by us. Music can be chosen from a few platforms and depending on the choice can be a surcharge. The licensing for the images and video will be signed and tailored to the purpose and time period for which they are created.
You spotted I am not a balloon. In fact I am a location indicator and this is Cappadocia. You are smart! You should work with us.
We aim to make our content resonate with people. It must feel close, achievable. Giving people the feeling of ‘That could be us’ is a leading principle. We want it to click. ‘Why am I not there, right now? ’Therefore the Creative Direction has to guide us towards beautiful, but not fake. The subjects in the content are allowed to be pretty, but not supermodels. It has to be tastefully colorgraded, but not overly photoshopped, plastic or too cinematic moody. All too often we see editors go overboard and go either too saturated or exactly the opposite with desaturated cinematic moody visuals. We believe in a more subtle and timeless Creative Vision.
Maybe you already have a lot of content right on the shelves. But it is not ready to be used yet. Our team can help you with Colorgrading and Editing to match your brand’s style or help you create a new Creative Direction. We have colorgrading presets that you can buy or you can show us the look and feel, you are looking for and we make you your own brand preset package.
For the past five years we have worked with many Brands, Luxury Hotels, Publications and Destination Marketing Agencies around the world. Below you will find an example from some of our partners and clients. We only work with brands we love and that we have a natural fit with. We specialize in content creation in the Travel – Luxury – Sustainability – Lifestyle – niche, and typically don’t venture outside.
Our Portfolio consists of International Brands that we worked with in the past five years in our different area’s of expertise. For more information on how we work on different projects, visit our Case Studies for Content Creation, Social Media and Influencer Management.
Judith & Mark shoot Seasonal Content for our Social Media, Magazine and Website and not only is the Content amazing. They are a pleasure to work with. Their creativity, response time and flexibility is on another level.
We have worked with many Content Creators and Influencers for Ritz-Carlton and the Phulay Bay Reserve but I have to say we love the pictures, the angles and the tone colors, thank you very much for creating such stunning pictures for us. Your Instagram stories and reels look absolutely stunning and appealing; we really appreciate all the contribution.
Mark & Judith launched our new property in Bali. They provided full service branding and marketing. They created content and managed influencers, including selection, briefing and deliverables. Within 3 months we went from 30% to 90% occupancy.
In many cases, we deliver beyond the scope of a project. That means that during our projects we come up with ideas, set up couple settings, and shoot additional content that wasn’t part of the original assignment. It is possible to license this content by purchasing our content packages. An example of the work we have done for our partners. We have licensed our clients for various projects ranging from images that are used on websites, booking.com, magazines, books to of course on social media.
For every specific need we have a license option. Depending on the scope of the project we can define which one suits you best. It is also possible to upgrade your license in a later stage.
This is the most popular option. Brands who use this option are allowed to use Content we create on their Social Media platforms.
If you are looking for Content with more flexibility regarding your usage rights this is the right option. With this option you can use the content in every way except external use or reselling.
In case you want to use Content for external channels, like commercials, billboards and printed media that is not owned, we have a third option. In this option we license your brand for the usage purposes you are looking for with the exception of reselling.
