‘Filmmakers Dave Meinert and Wayne de Lange’s new action-packed, sun-soaked footage to promote upcoming JBay Winter Fest has pushed the boundaries of what can be created on a consumer camera.’

The video is nothing revolutionary; it’s simple and beautiful like many other videos. But the contraption they made to create certain angles and shots otherwise not achievable is pretty cool. Check it out and you will understand.

The action is shot entirely on a GoPro using a modified rig that constantly spins around professional surfer, Tanika Hoffman as she surfs, skates, cycles and runs. According to Meinert and de Lange, “We wanted to create a piece that people would watch and feel they could create themselves, while still making the quality incredible. It took us 5 days of filming only at critical times of the day and we used a rig that we modified over several weeks but essentially anyone could have still shot that same concept.” Meinert used the same idea when creating his first GoPro project – the world’s first music video shot by a dog. Along with de Lange’s expertise as a Director/DP specialising in water and action footage, they have raised the bar on what can be created with a good idea and over the counter filming equipment.
