- 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: / brightontriclub
You can take part in this iconic event yourself by registering at:
brightontri.org/palace-to-pad...
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!

I hope you enjoyed watching! I’d love to hear what you thought of it. Let me know with a comment 👍
Oh wow you make it look so easy
haha, I just filmed it, my brother did all the hard work!
Wow that was awesome!!!!!
Hey 👋 thanks for watching! Glad you liked it 👍
It turned out beautifully! Love the saturation with the water
Thanks Emily! Yeah I’m pretty pleased with how it came out and it’s already doing a great job of promoting the event over on Facebook!
Ah that's good news and I'm not surprised!
Onto yours now!
bloody hell how exciting! I'm just uploading a short time-lapse i did of Englebert which could be of use (you'll want to chop it up and take out the sound obvs though). He was very popular too so might be a good one to have in the vid as b-roll etc. let me know if you need more!
Hey, this is dope! There are some shots I would've loved to see held longer like the one towards the end when the drone is following is behind the protagonist swimming. Phenomenal work. A powerful voice over would serve this well and help to more efficiently push the event. Just my thoughts. Great job
Thanks Ray! Really appreciate your thoughts! 👍 there are a few shots I’d like to have been longer too but I was really conscious about making the finished film too long. I’m actually planning on filming an interview with the swimmer and creating a slightly longer different version which instead of promoting an event is actually just a motivational short showing his passion for sea swimming. Thanks again so much for watching and commenting 🙏👍
Great video! Really liked your shooting/editing style and reading in the description about your motivation and research for making it. I hope you're planning to film the event and look forward to seeing it. Subbed :)
Hey 👋 thanks so much for watching and commenting! It was a lot of fun to make and yes I’m very much hoping to get out on a boat to film the whole thing! Thanks again 👍
Will Chidlow our pleasure! Looking forward to it :)
