FilmedSurf: Surf Video & Photo

Get filmed while you surf — or film the lineup and get paid for it. FilmedSurf connects surfers with the filmers who shoot them. Log a session, and the clips and photos taken at that spot at that time come to you. FIND YOUR WAVES • Check in when you paddle out; clips and photos that match your time and place show up under "Might be you" • See a watermarked preview first — make sure it is really you before you buy • What you buy is the clean, full-quality video or the original photo, saved straight to your camera roll FOR FILMERS — GET PAID FOR WHAT YOU SHOOT • Just film — the spot is detected for you • Shot photos on your own camera? Upload them from your camera roll and sell each one • Set your own price for each clip or photo and publish it to the surfers who were out there • Keep 75% of every sale.
