BBC 'hangs ten' at Brighton
BBC Motion Gallery has been appointed as the global distributor for a new series of surfing, skiing and snowboarding footage produced by international sports brand Rip Curl. The footage has been specially shot by extreme sports camera specialists and offers over three and a half hours of action and stunts across all three sports.
BBC Motion Gallery Sales Director Linda Reeve says: "There is stunning new footage in this collection of surf and snowbound action. With the latest production techniques, Rip Curl has been able to capture quality shots at high speeds, whether inside a breaking wave or hurtling down the slopes."
Rip Curl Content Manager Marty James adds: "With BBC Motion Gallery already managing the BBC's formidable sporting archives, we very much look forward to seeing this brand new footage licensed around the world. The shots are very inspirational, with the energy of the surf and snow action almost jumping from the screen."
