Project //
LOVE OF THE WAVE
CLIENT //
World Surf League
At the 2017 J-Bay Open, we were approached by the creative producer from World Surf League to shoot a story for them titled 'For the Love of the Wave'. The story followed surfer Matt Wilkinson, at the time, the number 1 surfer in the world. The story followed his love for the wave at the J-Bay surf competition and the sport itself. We scripted and storyboarded the piece and then worked closely with Wilkinson to deliver an authentic documentary-style delivery.

THOUGHTS ON THE PROJECT
“I received a recommendation for Fell and Company, while I was on the search for a trusted production partner in South Africa. After our first call, I knew we were on the right path. Greg has a passion for craft and storytelling. He and his team were able to bid and prep extremely quickly, a week out for the right production approach we needed. The project was turn-key. The shoot and post-production went very smooth and I’m looking forward to our next film.”
