    I started on this project as a production co-ordinator. After four days into production, the temporary Script Supervisor, Inge Rita Jansen had no luck in securing a suitable candidate to take over her department. Having already been booked on another production, Inge was helping us out. It became apparent that I had the relevant skills to train under Inge's supervision to take over when she left. Script Supervising utilises all my knowledge of various departments from camerawork, editing, writing to directing. I rose to the challenge and honed my skills to complete the production as a Script Supervisor.

    A documentary promo about two most unlikely characters who befriend each other on the waves of Muizenburg. The only thing that binds them is their love for surfing. With both characters having started surfing later in life, the documentary explores not just their passion for the sport but also reveals their diverse backgrounds, beliefs and personalities. The trials and tribulations that each of them go through physically and spiritually to get onto their boards and what they have to give up to catch the next wave.
