Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series 2010 – Story Clip Hawaii

The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series 2010 is back in the sport’s birthplace ‘Mana’ and ‘pono’, power and balance — these old Hawaiian principles were crucial when lele kawa, diving off cliffs, was born on the islands in the midst of the Pacific back in the 18th century. They are principles that have been upheld and are today prerequisites for the sport of high diving. It was from a rock made of lava that the last independent chief of Maui, King Kahekili, jumped in the late 1700s. The site of Kahekili’s Leap has ever since then been regarded as the birthplace of the majestic sport of cliff diving.

“BRINY DEEP” Music Video – Directed by Derek Frey

CREDITS Starring RAVANI FLOOD Directed and Produced by DEREK FREY MAKING OF THE VIDEO “We shot the video over two days, along the rocky eastern coastline of Puna on the big island of Hawaii. I wanted it to look more like the coastline of the Pacific Northwest or New England. I always had cliffs in mind ever since I first heard the song. We were fortunate enough to shoot on a couple of overcast days where the water was really stirred up. Most of the Eastern coast of the big island has scenery like this but one of our main concerns was to find a stretch where you wouldn’t see any homes in the background. TThe only crew involved were RaVani and myself. I threw my camera gear in a bag and brought a portable radio for playback. RaVani sang to a temp mix of the song in which the chorus had not been recorded yet. Luckily once the song was complete it synched up perfectly. The band was in a transitional period and not all of the members were available for the shoot. Also, I thought it would be more appropriate to focus on RaVani due to the mystical and thematic elements of the song which center around a relationship between a mother and daughter. The limited crew, however, worked out for the best because it’s quite dangerous out around the cliffs. RaVani actually worried me a few times when she stepped out on the edge without warning me. A couple times I thought she was going right over. It made for some great shots but I wouldn’t suggest it to anyone. We were probably lucky. The
