The Azores: Mountains of the Atlantic (full film)
The Azores sit at the triple junction between the three tectonic plates of America, Europe and Africa. Mount Pico, the tallest mountain in Portugal, towers as a geological wonder over the Azorean archipelago while the newer Capelinhos volcanoes at the other end at Faial, serve as a reminder of how alive and unpredictable the geology of the Azores can be.
This mini documentary takes an in-depth look into the geographical wonder that is the Azores, by going into its deepest parts as well as its highest points, to understand why people are drawn to this place, and its purpose in people's lives.
This project was self-funded, out of a personal interest for filmmaking, with a focus on educating the public on nature and conservation.

The Azores: Freediving
zhlédnutí 677Před 7 měsíci
Home to nine islands, each unique with its own landscape and culture, the Azores offers a rich variety of marine diversity one can experience, both above and under the water. Freediving is one of the ways to encounter marine creatures up close, with breath techniques leading to an almost meditative state of mind. When freediving under breath hold, the quietness of the ocean is the first thing y...
Nazare, Portugal (full film)
zhlédnutí 523Před 7 měsíci
The town of Nazaré has always captivated the world, as the home of the world's largest wave. Yet little is still known about this place, and it's significance in Portugal's rich maritime history. First founded on a legend known as "our lady of Nazare" in the 12th century on top of a hill, Nazare grew into a flourishing fishing and maritime center from the 15th century onwards, where the rulers ...
Why I Surf: Journey to Portugal
zhlédnutí 12KPřed 7 měsíci
Surfing has always fascinated the average person as an exotic sport, that only certain free spirited people do, for unknown reasons that can only be described as "a vibe". While there is a little truth to it, the reality is actually much closer to many of us, with the people more real and similar than what we imagine. This mini travel documentary to Peniche, Portugal, looks into the lives and d...

    Nice meeting you in Boa Vista (Cabo Verde). We saw a couple of whales really close. I wish you a lot of happiness making your new documentary about the whales. Kind regards! Joost

      Thanks Joost! Really happy that you and your family saw those whales, considering the bad weather experiences you had, and it's really a life moment! 😀 Thank you, I'll be sure to share here the upcoming videos and all the best too to your remix work (I listened to some already) 😉

    Azores are beautiful. My first up and close freediving dolphin encounter was in the Azores and the islands will always have a place in my heart. I hope to go again this summer. I hope you have many more great dives to come!

      Hey thanks for your remarks! Yea the Azores is really amazing, and I am glad you even saw them freediving. It was a surreal experience even for me (you can check out the longer 20 min video on Azores on my channel, with dolphins at the end). 😊 Thanks and for sure, I wiill be making more videos on the Azores this year!

      @life_in_documentaries Před 8 měsíci

      @edwardfronc5262 Thank you!! These projects began with my interest in the ocean, but it's evolved since then. What's also interesting, is that the "stories" I planned in my mind before filming, usually change on-site when I meet new characters or discover new places, which makes travelling and deep-diving into the history exciting. :-) Glad you liked it, and your support means a lot for me and also all of us content creators, so thanks again!! (sequels are in the works) :-D
