Call: 07 5559 5551

Soul Arch Media & Marketing combines the talents of Videographer Dave Emge and Writer/Journalist Carolyn Ridings-Emge. Dave was born in the U.S.A. but spent the last decade travelling the globe capturing footage of the world’s best surfers. Luckily his travels brought him to Australia, where he met Carolyn. Her magazine-editing background had seen her recruited to copywrite for major websites, marketing companies, and clothing brands, where she noted a massive swing towards using online video as an effective marketing tool. Coupling her existing copywriting service with Dave’s camera skills and tech savvy, and Soul Arch Media & Marketing was born.

Dave's Bio

Over the last twelve years, Dave has built a solid, dependable reputation for being one of the finest sports videographers on the planet. Dave’s talent was evident early; from humble beginnings creating his own surf TV shows for public access television in San Diego, U.S.A., Dave was soon recruited to be principal filmer for Taylor Steele’s Poor Specimen, one of the largest sports DVD producers. As their Director of Cinematography, Dave was responsible for compiling footage for dozens of surf blockbusters – films that are still regarded as industry classics. Leaving Poor Specimen in 2005 to relocate to Australia, Dave has enjoyed freelance success filming international-level sporting webcasts and compiling video marketing collateral for major clothing and footwear brands.
