Shimmer turns into a superherorainbowsurfergirl!

Haaaayyaaaaaa!!!

Amy, Jasmine, Gabe, Shimmer, Jenny, Holly/Taylor, Alyssa

So excited!

Imma be a Japanese Animation Surfer Girl in a

Japanese music video

called "Life" by a J-pop singer from Japan.

Here's a sneak peak behind the scenes from Day 1.

We started off the day with a beautiful double rainbow. ))

Magic Island was magical...

This is Kuma. Kuma means "bear" in Japanese.

He's my new homie.

We all had matching surfboards.

And matching leotards....

yessss....

we had to wear leotards surfing.

I was yellow...like the SUN, shimmering in the sky.

Totally appropriate!

Alyssa Wooten was pink.

Johnnie Purvis from Soul Surfing Crew

made sure the production ran smoothly.

And that he did.

The rain was a nice blessing.

The guy in the wet suit is Larry Haynes.

He's a pioneer in surf cinematography & videography.

Jenny waxing up her board.

We all paddled out to surf on our matching boards.

We had the top camera crew in Hawai‘i...

along with big RED.

The "RED" video camera is amazing.

Mike Prickett recently used it for a

recent 3D IMAX movie with

Kelly Slatercalled "The Ultimate Wave Tahiti."

Mike Prickett makes housings for

his top of the line cameras himself.

I asked him if he sells them.

He told me "No. It's a secret."

We had lots of fun taking snap shots

during all the waiting periods.

Jasmine lookin snazzy in blue.

Amy lookin sassy in purple.

Holly on fiaaaahhhh in red.

After a long 15 hours of surfing, laughing,

giggling, snacking, swimming like mermaids,

paddling Kuma around in the lagoon, and hard work,

we called it a day and rolled out some time after sunset.

XO!

Shimmer ;)
