This stock footage portfolio was shot with a simple idea in mind: follow a young couple on a scenic drive along Spain’s Costa Brava, winding past cliffs and sweeping views of the Mediterranean. It’s equal parts road trip and escape—easy, unplanned, and full of quiet moments.
When they reach a secluded beach, they dive straight into the water. The tone stays light and natural—playful splashes, laughter, nothing over-staged. It feels like a real day, not a scripted one.
Later, they turn the back of the car into a simple lounge space, stretching out and taking in the view. Close, intimate shots capture small exchanges—conversations, smiles, the kind of moments that don’t need much direction.
Throughout, the focus stays on those in-between moments—exploring, swimming, relaxing. The piece is less about the destination and more about the feeling of discovering something new together.

When Cardboard Spaceship set out to create original content for Filmsupply, the goal was not just to capture beautiful landscapes, it was to create footage with narrative value.
Stock footage often feels generic, interchangeable, and disconnected from real human experience.
“Run Away” was built to change that, a cinematic, story-driven collection designed to feel like a film, not just clips.
Most licensed outdoor content lacks specificity.
It captures locations, but not perspective. It shows activity, but not emotion. And it rarely reflects diverse casting or authentic community.
The opportunity was clear: create premium footage that feels intentional, character-driven, and culturally relevant, while still being flexible enough for broad licensing use.
The Idea
Instead of shooting isolated moments, the idea was to build a narrative arc.
“Run Away” follows a young woman chasing a new life in the outdoors, discovering that resilience is built over time, not at the summit.
Every shot, from travel to trail to community, was designed to function both as part of a larger story and as standalone, licensable content.
Production took place in and around Denver, chosen for its proximity to diverse landscapes and efficient access to mountain environments.
The shoot was structured across two days:
A mix of cinematic and POV techniques, including mounted cameras, tracking shots, and handheld movement, created a balance between polish and immediacy.
Key moments were designed for versatility, summit reflections, group dynamics, and kinetic movement through nature, ensuring a wide range of licensing applications.
