New work for @stichtingdenoordzee 
The North Sea shaped me. As a stoked kid, a teenager, an athlete, a father. And as a filmmaker.. but above all, as a human who loves the sea. She taught me patience, gave me freedom, confronted me with fear and gifted me euphoria and a lifelong passion: surfing. A lot of the things I do started in the north sea, so to create this for @stichtingdenoordzee was truly full circle and wholesome. With a small, dedicated team we created a film that gives her a voice. Not as a backdrop, but as a living being. It's now officially the busiest sea in the world, gasping for breath.
 From endless horizons.. to a skyline of steel, turbines, platforms, fires and red lights. The North Sea deserves our attention. Always. But now more than ever! Production company: @off.therichter

For specialty shots during our outdoor shoot in Lapland for @bevernl we rigged a springwound Bolex with a @snorricam to our talent in the arctic circle #bolex #kodak #shootfilm #filmproduction #articcircle #snorricam

This time getting the result means suiting up and licking our way to the shots we want to capture - while on location for an outdoor shoot in a beautiful part of The Netherlands✨

2025 is here, and we’re taking off with something we never took time for: a first showreel 🌘💫 For the past 5+ years, we’ve been busy behind the scenes; pouring heart and vigour into every project or story we take on. But here’s the thing—we’ve realized we’ve rarely taken a moment to showcase our work or share our journey with the world. This is just a taste of the stories we’ve woven and the worlds we’ve brought to life. A massive THANK YOU to everyone we worked with over the last years and will be working with onwards 💓🎆 Here is to dreaming, creating, and connecting with incredible beings like you. We are stoked to create magic with purpose together ✨ #OFFTHERICHTER
