Deliver a high-quality Maui corporate video with an award-winning crew
Filming your next corporate video in a distinctive location can give it an extra spark. With companies of all industries, sizes and regions now producing video content, that added excitement can be the factor that helps your media strategy stand out. As for where you should shoot your video, it’s hard to think of a more distinctive and stunning destination than the Hawaiian Islands.
Maui, the second-largest island, is served by three different airports for easy access. With annual average temperatures of 75-85 degrees Fahrenheit, is conducive to outdoor filming all year round. In 2023, the island was devastated by wildfires, which led to destruction in areas like Lahaina Town in West Maui. The island’s recovery efforts are underway, and one of the ways to support Maui is to do business there, including through a video shoot.
Stunning sights cover the whole island. The 30,000-acre Haleakalā National Park is a safe home for a variety of endangered fauna and incorporates the highest peak on Maui. The ʻĪao Needle, site of the 1790 Battle of Kepawniwai, is both beautiful to the eye and ingrained in the cultural history of Maui. With an expert crew on your side, you can discover all these spots and more as you plot your video shoot.
Why insist on a local Maui video crew?
Working with crew members who truly understand their home region is a shortcut to producing a video that makes the most of the natural and historic destinations in the area. In a place like Maui, important advice can start with logistics. For example, will it be most convenient for you to fly into Kahului Airport or the smaller Kapalua Airport or Hāna Airport? To ensure every shoot has access to expert insights, Crews Control pairs every video client with crew members who are based in the places where they work.
Our crews’ local knowledge extends to permitting and legal necessities. There are multiple kinds of film permits associated with a Maui video shoot, some from the county, others from the state and still others issued by federal bodies like the National Park Service. By collaborating with the Maui County Film Office at least two weeks before the shoot begins, you and your Crews Control team can navigate the system and have a smooth legal approval process.
Beyond their ability to provide expert local insights, Crews Control team members are skilled and effective film professionals. Knowledgeable in both the technical and artistic sides of brand filmmaking, our crews can help you make the most of your Maui video shoot, capturing high-quality footage without straining your on-screen talent or internal stakeholders.

What’s unique about Maui as a video production location?
Every filming destination in the world is distinctive. Even within the relative closeness of the Hawaiian Islands, no two areas are quite the same: Filming on Maui is different from a Honolulu video shoot. By brushing up on the local landmarks and experiences before you arrive, you can make the most of your production time. Some facts to keep in mind include:
- Beaches offer different experiences: Maui is home to renowned beaches — and there’s more than one type of shoreline ringing the island. For example, you can capture footage of world-class windsurfers at Ho’okipa Beach Park or explore the 1.5 miles of sand on Mākena Beach.
- Haleakalā National Park is home to spectacular volcanic views: While filming in national parks requires additional permits, it’s worth it to venture into the majestic Halekalā National Park. This preserved area contains a majestic volcano that’s renowned for its sightlines, but your crew should be prepared for massive temperature variations as you climb toward the summit.
- The Road to Hāna is its own attraction: Along the east of Maui, you’ll find the Hāna Highway, a popular road that leads through some of the world’s most stunning countryside. Along the road, you’ll find ranches, beaches, botanical gardens and Hale Pi’ilani, the largest heiau temple anywhere in the islands.
- Filming season lasts all year: Because of the moderating effects of trade winds, Maui’s steady weather allows outdoor filming all year long. There are variations in conditions by season that you can plan around, however. Summer sees less precipitation than winter, and temperatures are a little warmer. There are also regional differences in weather: The west of the island is drier than the east.
Exploring Maui is always exciting. Doing so with an experienced video crew can lead to a wealth of high-quality footage for your next deliverable.
