Fearless - A Wot's Goin On 4 Uth video
View a text transcript of this video.
Nineteen-year old Chris Sutton had been filming himself and his friends doing flips for more than a year using his phone. So when the Wot's Goin On 4 Uth phone video workshops turned up in Bairnsdale in March/April 2008 he was ready to go.
The result was his video, Fearless, featuring four-and-a-half minutes of flips. Standing flips, flipping off the side of houses, flipping over fences, flipping off jetties, flipping over each other... If it's a kind of flip, it's featured in Fearless.
"Basically anywhere we go, we'd get footage of flips," says Chris. "Originally it just started off as muckin' around. I had only a couple of videos, and then I decided to put 'em together and then people just jumped in on it."
The Wot's Goin On 4 Uth workshops were run by Gippsland East LLEN (new window) as part of National Youth Week 2008, in partnership with youthcentral, East Gippsland Shire Council and CRAYV.
