Two Brothers Video Productions was founded in 2000 with the acquisition of our first helmet camera system. Filming our snowboarding excursions quickly became part of the winter routine. Over the years we have refined our equipment and techniques to allow us capture the true essence of alpine sports. Our approach to filming alpine sports is ground breaking and unique.
The TBV technique is this: We wear the cameras and film riders doing what they do best. No more stationary camera shots. We film alpine riders from top to bottom by riding with them. We film it all: trees, chutes, bumps, cliffs, powder. We are there for every hoot, hollar, and crash. Traditional helmet camera footage usually shows what the wearer is seeing, but is lacking a subject for the viewer to relate to. All of the footage we capture always has a rider in shot. Throw in multiple filmers with cameras chasing a single person (or group) and you get fabulous multi-camera perspectives that will get your viewers holding onto their seats!
So how do we do this? With lots of practice. After 6 years of wires, fogged lenses, dead batteries, and lots of $$ we’ve decided to roll out Helmet Camera Central. We hope you enjoy our videos, learn from our experiences, and help broaden the world helmet camera videography.
