30 mins
Russell Ord wakes one morning in Margaret River, looks over the photos he’s spent a large part of his life capturing and is filled with an overpowering sense of dissatisfaction. The shots are good and have graced the covers of surfing magazines worldwide, but deep down Ord knows he didn’t walk away from a secure career as a fire fighter to just take “good” shots. He wants to go to bed at night knowing he’s taken that “one” shot, the one he'll remember not because of the surfer's name or reputation, but for the position he had to be in to capture it. Just down the coast is a thick, evil, brute of a wave he knows will deliver the opportunity to capture just that. But as a loving husband with three kids it’s not lost on him that the end goal, and that drive to have ‘his moment', isn’t going to come without sacrifice.

An IAN MUTCH and CHRISTIAN FLETCHER Collaboration
What do you get when you cross a small country town with a landscape photographer and an artist/illustrator keen to collaborate. Unfortunately we may never know. This little project failed to get off the ground, as so many do, but I’m sure we’ll see them pop up with another agenda somewhere down the track.

Freddy Morris, stepped into our office with his track and a pretty clear concept, based on what he was visualising during the song-writing process. With just over a day to shoot it, we got busy developing the idea, storyboarding and throwing together a shoot schedule to give us the best chance of achieving the vision with the bare bones crew you see below. Plenty of challenges, heaps of mistakes, but we kept on track and managed to come up with this music video
