Produced in partnership with Visit Portugal, the project combined territorial branding with editorial storytelling, reaching over 30 million viewers across broadcast and digital platforms.
As a Producer, I led the development and execution of the series — aligning budgets and narrative direction, managing production teams and ensuring that strategic brand positioning translated into authentic storytelling on screen.
