Hi Friends!

This is a short film I've made recently that I'm really proud to share with you all!

I shot this all on an iPhone 8 Plus, GoPro Hero 4 Silver and DJI Mavic Pro drone.

All sound effects are either from Freesound.org or recorded myself.

This short film was made to help promote an upcoming sea swim event in Brighton put on by Brighton Tri Club.

Website: brightontri.org
Facebook: facebook.com/BrightonTriClub

You can take part in this iconic event yourself by registering at:

brightontri.org/palace-to-paddle-swim-2018

I shot this project over 2 days and edited in roughly another 2 days. The project was edited in Final Cut Pro 10.4

In order to make this film I really had to talk to my brother and understand the drive that makes people want to swim in the sea, especially when it cold! From talking to Rich about sea swimming and finding out more about the Brighton Tri Club Palace to paddle event I started to really understand what motivates people to take part and really wanted to convey the exhilarating and exciting feeling that people get from sea swimming and also the huge sense of achievement that comes with such a challenge. I have no doubt now that the palace 2 paddle sea swim will be a fantastic event.

As always, Enjoy, thanks for watching and I'll see you again soon!
