Stephanie Gilmore, Animated And Audible
The (future) 7x World Champ and filmmaker Masanobu Hiraoka team up for precious animated short, with original Steph tune!
Frankly, we’ve rarely thumbed our nose at just about anything Miss Stephanie Gilmore—surfing’s Lady Of Grace, our 6x World Champ (but not for long)—does with her free time.
Take today’s offering, from the the 30-year-old from Murwillumbah’s sticker sponsor, Roxy. For their most recent collaboration featuring Steph, the lady’s leg of Quiksilver tapped artist and illustrator Masanobu Hiraoka.
From Roxy: “Introducing our latest collaboration with 6x World Champion, Stephanie Gilmore & a group of artists at the forefront of their respective mediums.
“Illustrated by filmmaker, Masanobu Hiraoka from live-action footage and scored by the champ herself alongside LA-based musician Aska Matsumiya. The final result is wildly hypnotic and a mind-bending interpretation of form.”
