Overview

Execution

Seamlessly weaving together the distinct shooting styles and creative voices of three very different directors, the film offers a unique opportunity to fully explore and develop the story from multiple perspectives. The editor worked through roughly 70 hours of material, consisting of various formats including mini DV, iPhone, Go Pro and Alexa. With access to ragged hand held, meticulously composed frames, speed drones, complex bullet cam set-ups and carefully blocked movement, the editor was provided with a diverse range of options to tell the best story and depict this vibrant skateboarding culture.

Having access to an authentic catalog of Ghanaian music was vital to helping the editor find the tone of the film. Once the music was selected, the goal was to thread together tracks that not only reflected the joy of skateboarding but also invoked the dreams of this eclectic group of skaters and their community as a whole.
