Arctic Surf Film
Docs & Non-Fiction (Sports), Other Gems (Branded Entertainment)
[ 8:50 - from YouTube ]
Somebody had to do it. Five surfers strapped on battery powered wet suits and tackled waves that have never been surfed before. Yassine Ouhilal filmed their trek while he was on location as a photographer for Outside Magazine. This short doc proves that you don't need a bunch of fancy tools to make a great film. Ouhilal videotaped the trek with a Canon 5DMkII, mixed the audio in GarageBand, and cut the footage in iMovie. It turns out that this film is also branded entertainment for Eddie Bauer and their new line of mountaineering gear called “First Ascent." See - branded entertainment doesn't have to feel like a commercial.
