What we did
Brief
Brief
Tell the story of a legendary big-wave surfer risking his season hunting an unexplored Atlantic swell.
Approach
Approach
A highlight reel shows the wave, not the stakes. To capture the human journey, we created a documentary around the uncertainty itself, trading typical sports spectacle for the personal tension of chasing something that might not happen.

Won Best Ocean Experience film at the Waimea Ocean Film Festival.
Andrew Cotton Surf Documentary
We created a half hour doc offering a unique and highly personal portrait of Cotty, his crew and family through a winter in the Atlantic. First broadcast on Red Bull TV, we also produced a series of online shorts and social assets for the programme.
