‘Dreamers of Dreams’ Takes a Journey over the powerful and mesmerising seascape of Nazare in Portugal.

Created by Cornish production company ‘Light Colour Sound‘, which has renowned British surf film maker Tim Boydell at its helm, this short features drone footage from the giant swell that hit Nazaré at the begining of this month.

The edit was created as an entry into the ShotOver G1 competition, where the winner will receive a life changing amount of top range filming equipment, including a RED Epic. If you dig the film and want to vote for it, you can do so here.

“As the ocean thunders towards these Celtic Shores few humans with the tenacity to challenge it attempt to surf these monster waves. The feelings and emotions encapsulated in this film, driven by the words of Arthur O’Shaughnessy, lead us through a story shared by Surfer and film maker alike.

“With true passion comes the drive for the ultimate shot and the ultimate ride. We wake at unreasonable hours dreaming of these moments, unable to sleep, Like being caught in the falls, ideas and visions take hold of your mind and push you deep.

“The feelings we get from capturing these moments are equal to the power of these cracking waterfalls, burrowing thunder through the sand and up through our feet. We all live and breath these mind-blowing images, capturing memories to pass onto the next generation of imaginations.

“We are honoured to live in a time where we have an opportunity to enter this competition. These tools would truly change the game for so many people around our film making community. If you like our film, please vote here.”
