De Kaag Watersport Academy
De Kaag Watersport Academy
When I was a child I fell in love with this place. I started windsurfing here, and I started playing around with a gopro camera here just for fun. Since then I have always came back every now and then and now, more then 10 years later I came back as a professional filmmaker. De Kaag Watersport Academy gives you a feeling, a vibe. This is what I have tried to capture in this moodfilm.

BENR – Tranen van Geluk
The second videoclip I did for BENR. Working from idea, to concept, all the way to the final product was a blast. I enjoyed creating this touching piece of fiction to underline the deeper message in the song. While doing this music video I noticed how my directing skills are still evolving and getting better. It was awesome to direct these skillful actors and actress and it was a beautiful emotional day. Enjoy!

Ruben Lenten injury in barcelona
Ruben Lenten injury in barcelona
Ready for a two week roadtrip with Ruben Lenten we started chasing a storm traveling to Barcelona. The first session, after 10 minutes, the whole trip failed. Ruben broke his leg badly and our van was robbed in the hospital parking. More then 5000 euros of equipment was stolen on that day. Despite al the bad things that happened in a very short amount of time, I decided the best thing to do was to keep filming and that resulted in this video. I wish you a quick recovery Ruben!

Kitefest Argentina
In the beginning of april, 2018, I flew down to Cuesta del Viento in Argentina together with Ruben Lenten to create an aftermovie for Kitefest Argentina 2018. Together with Jesse Richman and Tom Hebert, Ruben was hosting the event and celebrating his 30th birthday. We had an awesome week in the middle of nowhere, partying and giving shows. This short film is the result.

Being in school gives me the opportunity to experiment with film. The idea for this concept was with me for a long time already, but I never made time to actually do it. Now that I did I’m happy with the result and had fun doing it!

What I Do
My name is Floris Tils and I was born in Utrecht, the Netherlands and fell in love with extreme sports at a young age. I started windsurfing a lot, and wanted to document the fun that me and my friends were having. At the age of 13 I got a GoPro and that's where it all started.
Nowadays I'm a 20 year old passionate freelance filmmaker based in the Netherlands, Utrecht. My goal is to become one of the best freelance filmmakers in the extreme sports world, and to travel and see the world while practising my biggest passion. Creating video content that makes people say "wow!".
