Nassau Event Videographer | Ride For Hope Bahamas Charity Bike-a-thon

Get out your bicycle and dust of your helmet. It's that time of year again. Ride for Hope is being held in Nassau Bahamas this year and the event is slated for Feb 7-8th 2015. Ride for Hope is a a local charity that 'raises hope and resources to fight cancer' Cyclists are sponsored for the event and for every mile they raise money comes in to help in the fight to treat & cure cancer. Some of the more determined riders ever peddle a grueling 100 miles. So even if you can't ride at the event you can help out by sponsoring a rider.

Ride for Hope is one of the team at Frangipani's favorite local charities.

We love people and organizations that try to make the world a better place. Therefore, we donate our time and services to the 'Make A Wish' foundation, Living Word Camp in Minnesota and several other worthwhile causes.

Learn a little bit about Ride For Hope Bahamas in the video below.

Nassau, Bahamas Videographer - Aerial Video & Extreme Sports - Driven by Wind

Despite what many people think, living on a tropical island can become routine, just like living anywhere else in the world.  Although you can be surrounded by gorgeous caribbean waters, life happens, and you never seem to have enough time to enjoy where you live.  To ensure this didn't happen to me, last year I made a promise to dedicate more time to my passions, wind sports and filmmaking. These pursuits were the driving force behind the creation of the short video below. I wanted to capture some of the natural beauty The Bahamas has to offer from a slightly different perspective...the air... and being powered by it. Enjoy.

Eleuthera Videographer - Ride for Hope Bahamas 2013

If you're at all familiar with us at Frangipani Photography & Film you know that we love supporting worthwhile causes. Although we are not always able to spend as much time helping out as we would like, Brett was able to spend a weekend in October with Ride for Hope Bahamas. Ride for Hope is a a local charity that 'raises hope and resources to fight cancer'  Cyclists are sponsored for the event and for every mile they raise money comes in to help in the fight to treat & cure cancer. Some of the more determined riders ever peddle a grueling 100 miles.

If you're a cyclist or bike rider at any level we can think of no better way to spend a Saturday in October than the Ride for Hope in Eleuthera Bahamas.

In it's 8th year, the annual Ride for Hope charity bike ride in Eleuthera, Bahamas was as successful as ever.
Strong wind and rains leading up to the big day threatened to put a damper on this year's event. Fortunately, the riders, volunteers and sponsors were not detered. Everyone remained in high spirits despite the weather and awoke to a beautiful sunshiny morning on Saturday, October 26th 2013.
Participants enjoyed riding up to 100 miles over all the lovely terrain the island of Eleuthera has to offer. From sleepy little fishing settlements to scenic hill top vistas & long stretches of beach, Eleuthera has it all.
Volunteers turned out in record numbers to offer enthusiastic support and encouragement for all the riders.
With each mile pedaled, dollars come in and every single one of those dollars is donated to cancer caring centers and cancer treatment programs.

Nassau, Bahamas - Aerial Images & Video on a Budget

As anyone who own's a smartphone knows, technology is changing at an alarming rate. Gadgets are getting smaller and smarter than ever before. Digital cameras are no different. Almost every week it seems Canon and GoPro are releasing a new smaller lighter camera than the week before.

Most people, become frustrated from constantly having your new computer become obsolete the moment you get it home. Frangipani Photography & Film, however, thrives in this ever evolving environment.

New technology has allowed us to get creative and interesting footage in places previously thought impossible. From mounting a camera to Brett's helmet as he kitesurfs to strapping one to the barrel of a paintball gun.

The past year has seen sky high advancement in video tech and Frangipani Film has been keeping in step.  Brett spent 4 months of his summer building & training with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (a.k.a. UAV, Drone, or Quadcopter). This has made it simple to film what was previously only possible with a big hollywood budget and large helicopter films crews.  The impossible is now possible, and surprisingly affordable.  Take a look at the video below then call us today.

Footage captured in and around the many lakes of Minnesota. Great for commercials, documentary work or real estate.
