Here are some of Patrick Trefz photographs from the making of his 16mm surf film “Thread” that I was fortunate enough to be a part of. Thread was filmed in 2006-07 in Santa Barbara (shots of my brother Tom and I in the studio and Sandspit sequence), Greece (trees) and Cabo Verde (surf frame grab). Here’s links to Trefz’s websites that have more of his photographs and info on the film and book. Trefz has a new film in the works called “Idiosyncrasies” set to release this year. It should be a good one…
