Chamonix is a 365 days a year winter destination. Surrounded by glaciers and blessed with the most vertical mountains of the Alps; it's like a big sports university with 8000 students, the actual number of its inhabitants.

The most diverse mountain activities are everywhere. Together with neighbouring Mégève and Courmayeur on the Italian Mont Blanc side it offers an endless amount of incredible alpine backdrops, amazing châlets for indoors and outdoors productions and all-year-round wintery moods. Alpine pastures and crystal clear lakes and rivers round off a region whose main village, Chamonix also offers beautiful backgrounds of nature.

7 Seas Productions developed this region together with local mountain guides and ski instructors, thus securing a tight grip on locations and safety.

Recent winter productions took place from May to August for Primark, French Elle and Bonprix.
