AUDI ROAD TO DAKAR 2024

Below are the 6 episodes which make up the journey of the Audi Dakar team for the 23/24 season. It’s hard to put into words the emotions and the true craziness of the last three years following this Audi Dakar team. They went in to bring an electric driven car to victory, the first time in history at one of the worlds toughest races and they finally did it… after three years of hard work, we’ve felt part of the team, not just a fly on the wall but in the mix of it all, and felt so welcomed and I can’t thank them enough for that.

 

To work with the amazing driver team has been a real honour and joy. This project has had it all: adventure, joy, accidents, injuries, the real lows to the top of the podium this year. 

 

I can’t thank the team at Rebel Productions enough for all the trust, to grow, to Creative Director Kai Klinke for all the trust and adventures in the first years together, where I was doing camera work; to this last year where I was very honored to direct the main films for Audi Official. We travelled the globe from Morocco, Spain, Germany, Austria, France, England to Saudi Arabia.

 

There are so many people to mention, to all the teams for the insane hours that these documentary projects bring, the hard conditions. THE DUST EVERYWHERE. Thank you, you know who you are!

 

DOP for a vast majority of the scenes is the wonderful Alexander Triebel with parts in between shot by Kai and myself.
