WORK - Documentary on World Champion Skydiving Freestyle Team

Описание: Work - A documentary about a freestyle skydiving team

This is the story of cameraman Will Penny and performer Yohann Aby from the World class skydiving freestyle team Flynamik. It's the story about how they ended up together, why they fly and what they do in order to reach their goals. Sit down in front of high quality screen and good speakers, switch to HD and enjoy.

Johannes Bergfors filmed Flynamik during one week in Empuriabrava in June 2016. Will Penny and him had a conversation in November 2015 when he invited Johannes to join them on a training camp. The team could not expect him to actually go this far with that invitation.

Early in the week Johannes told them he would be a pain in the ass to them, sticking the camera in their face at hard and easy moments. It took a while to get them used to it but they got more and more relaxed throughout the week. Johannes filmed them in bathrobes in the morning, coming out of the porta potties at the drop zone, followed them in 30 jumps in the sky but always did his best in trying to stay behind the scenes and allowing their training camp to continue as if I wasn't there.

What Johannes discovered was something that is maybe not so surprising for a team that are World Champions, World Air Games winner and double World Cup winners. They work very hard. Doubtlessly they are one of the hardest training teams in the world of not only the discipline of freestyle, but the full sport of skydiving. They go the extra miles to reach that tiny bit of improvement that only a handful people in the world will notice.

Thanks goes to Jonatan Thomasson, the sound post-production technician of this project and a good friend. While having two and a half other jobs, you took it on yourself with huge enthusiasm and great generosity to help me out with trying to fix the poorly recorded audio. You literally watched all the tenths of hours that I filmed, in order for you to get the big picture about the project. At day and night you were there, over Skype, to take notes about changes to the audio I wanted to have made. I hope we get to work more in the future together.

And thank you to you for watching.

Two cameras were used to film this, both by Sony. An AX53 and an a6000 with a variety of lenses.

All the music in the movie is used with rights to do so. Thank you very much to the artists that have allowed me to use their creative work to enhance mine. Arcadian Flowers by Trummor & Orgel was a big inspiration for me in the making of this documentary.

Thank you to Nicolas Arnaud, Martin Kristensen and Nils Kløcker Predstrup for allowing their skydiving footage to be used as reference material.
