Red Bull Snow Momentum

In february 2021 a big snow storm hit the Netherlands. Code red was given for three days as the country closed down. The young Red Bull athlete Melissa Peperkamp used this time to go trough the Netherlands to snowboard in some iconic places like an airport, the Circuit of Zandvoort and some street spots in Zoetermeer. After my internship at Red Bull, they asked me to direct and edit this project. Together with Bart Sperling and Jasper de Laet we filmed for three epic days with loads of action, and this video was the end result of that. Enjoy!

Brabo Hockey – Improve Yourself

I directed a big shoot for Brabo Hockey, creating a campaign of 11 videos as well as social media assets to launch the 2020 Brabo Hockey product line. A mix of seven extremely talented international athletes doing heavy training, an epic location and a pure and raw cinematic style resulted in this main brand video. Hard work, sweat and dedication should be present in the campaign and I think we succeeded.

De Kaag Watersport Academy

When I was a child I fell in love with this place. I started windsurfing here, and I started playing around with a gopro camera here just for fun. Since then I have always came back every now and then and now, more then 10 years later I came back as a professional filmmaker. De Kaag Watersport Academy gives you a feeling, a vibe. This is what I have tried to capture in this moodfilm.

What I Do
Floris Tils freelance cameraman Floris Tils freelance editor Floris Tils freelance drone operator

My name is Floris Tils and I was born in Utrecht, the Netherlands and fell in love with extreme sports at a young age. I started windsurfing a lot, and wanted to document the fun that me and my friends were having. At the age of 13 I got a GoPro and that's where it all started.

Nowadays I'm a 20 year old passionate freelance filmmaker based in the Netherlands, Utrecht. My goal is to become one of the best freelance filmmakers in the extreme sports world, and to travel and see the world while practising my biggest passion. Creating video content that makes people say "wow!".
