Garret Brown's original Steadicam® is an icon that revolutionized filmmaking. Being the first and the best, it naturally and justifiably commands a premium price. It is for this reason that homemade DIY Flying Camera Supports have been around since at least 1977, just one short year after Mr. Brown's invention.

With this tradition in mind, I present the two fundamental principles behind the steadycam and show you how to build your own Flying Camera Support.

If you are living in germany you are happy to see Born to Skate in a cinema near you in the late german summer.

We have a cooperation with Cineplus and Farbfilm and dates for cinema will be released soon.

So stay online, tuned and on board.


Edit 2.December 2008!

I am glad to tell you:
The film is finished now.
We are just preparing everything to release it and you may get updates here ASAP.

Hope that we may see us in cinema one day ;)



Music:
The music in the trailer is from Chris Heck. The guy that talks and screams in the beginning. The music is nowhere to buy and nowhere to hear except in the trailer. Chris can tell you more about that.

Description:

I quitt skateboard movies when I entered film school.

Now, after 5 years I came back to develop a new style of narration in skateboard movies.
Together with Chris Heck, who is also a protagonist in this movie we try to make our way.

Quentin Tarantino always chilled in the video rental store and was bored of all the same movies. The same happened to with me and all the Skateboard videos.

So,
"Born To Skate" it is a roadmovie, which does not only show skateboarding, but life in its true sense.

It´s my masterwork in filmschool in germany
The film itself will be about 60- 90 minutes long.
There is still, a lot of hard work has still to be done.

Soon, the website: borntoskate.de will be online, and more infos will be available.

I hope you liked the trailer.Please comment and enjoy it.
I am happy about every critic.

This is a re-edit of human movement in light. I took everyones comments from the first edit and tried to improve on it. In this one i tweaked the glow effect, i stabalized all the vibration in the dolly shots, and i took a song that i got a licensed to use and remixed it. Music from Moby Gratis
