Crankworx Cairns

What we did

Crankworx, a four day festival of international mountain biking competitions and races, originated in Whistler in British Columbia and is now Whistler’s largest annual festival. It has evolved into the Crankworx World Tour with festivals in Cairns, Innsbruck Austria and Rotorua New Zealand.

What we used

Gravity Media Australia was appointed by GTR Events to work with Boombox Group and Red Bull Media House to create and deliver for Red Bull TV, the international broadcast technology and production outcome for Crankworx Cairns. Across five different courses and four days of competition, Gravity Media accessed 52 different camera positions, satellite broadcast technology, and 15 cameras including specialist cameras and drones to capture what is described as “the ultimate experience in mountain biking”.

Outcome

Gravity Media’s collaboration with GTR Events and Boombox Group now sees Crankworx Cairns broadcast across the world via Red Bull TV.
