MADE by Callum Swift

Posted: Sep 11, 2009

After making 'The Uprising' last year I decided to make another film whist at university. Having spent a year on the WC circuit I had made good friends with many of the top riders so they were stoked to be a part of the project, and I started filming at the beginning of the year out in South Africa with Minnaar. Since then I have clocked up god knows how many miles traveling the world to capture the fastest riders on earth doing what they do on some of the most knarly and fun tracks out there. Whilst I do use fancy things like a remote control cable cam and dolly, I don't let the arty filming distract me from the most important thing, which is capturing the true speed and style of these riders. MADE is a film about the fastest and most talented riders on earth doing what they love, riding bikes.

Teaser inside...


I hope you enjoy this little taster and keep your eyes open for the full trailer which will be released when filming is wrapped up in a few months.

Calm down bud, you shouldn't take things so seriously. Duh! Of COURSE you didn't, and I didn't actually think you had. It was just a similar shot. There is no need to overreact like that.
