“ETERNITY” — Creating a Video Part From the Ground Up
On February 27 2026, a crew of young Queensland skaters are pulling the curtain back on something that’s taken a year of sweat, street missions and late nights. Eternity started the way most real projects do — iPhone clips at the park, after-school sessions, and a filmer who kept finding himself behind the camera because everyone else was better at skating.
But somewhere along the weekend missions to Brisbane, three-hour public transport hauls to random gaps, and long nights staring at an editing abyss, the project turned into something bigger.

We caught up with filmer Hunter Chillman (filmer) and Matai Sisarich (artwork) to chat about the creative process, learning to film and what it actually takes to work together and commit as a crew.
Hey guys, thanks for catching up to chat all things Eternity and creative process. Hunter, we’re keen to hear what made you want to create this part? Did you have a vision from the start?
I wouldn’t say I had a strong vision from the start. I just wanted to see my friends skate to their max potential, then slowly realised maybe this is worth making something out of.
You know, all the boys are at that level, to start making parts if they want a chance at making it. Being there to film your homies skate to their fullest is a blessing - a part is also the next necessary step to get your name out there.
If we look back at how it all started, I guess my very first influence to start making parts was the Patty G street tours. He would take us out to Brisbane and show us around the spots. I guess that’s where it started, as we basically just continued doing that but by ourselves and with a proper camera.”
How would you describe what has gone into creating something like this to someone who doesn’t know?
So much effort — way more effort than I would have imagined, especially for most of us boys being from Sunshine Coast. Finding skate spots in Sunshine Coast or making a mission to Brisbane or Gold Coast was such an effort.
Also the editing process. I guess it depends on the person, but for me, editing the part was a real struggle mentally, trying to edit something that’s up to everyone’s standard and also to my own satisfaction.
What do you personally love most about this project?
The effort that went into it. The amount of time and ache that went into making something good, then being able to share it with others.
I also love that the homies can come together and make something happen.
How did filming begin for you? Were you always into filming, or did you learn along the way?
Filming iPhone clips for all the homies — everyone was always better than me so I found myself filming a lot. So filming other people helped make positive connections with new people. Through enjoying filming so much, having a good crew and the evolution towards street, it kinda just made sense for me to buy a camera.
And then of course committing to buying a camera was a big step up with a lot of learning curves. But luckily at the same time I bought my camera, my homie Matai bought one too. Learning together and relating over the same stuff made the journey way better.
Thank you Matai for being with me, you are such a g.
Yeah, Matai, can you catch us up? How did you get involved in the project?
Well, Hunter and I met briefly a couple times at local skateparks, but got closer when I was filming my ‘Until we Meet Again’ video for Tourism. We'd often travel to Brisbane and around Sunshine Coast to film street footage. I was often messaging Hunter about the video’s progress, and he was sometimes asking for advice from my perspective. Honestly I didn't really contribute to the editing, I was loving his creative process.
When he asked about what I thought for the titles, I said I would more than happy to help and draw them just to help out the local scene.
I feel like graffiti and skating go hand in hand, tying in with street culture. I just enjoy that letter style and had some fun writing all the words and making the poster. I didn't think too hard on it.
I'm really proud of how the video came out. As a filmer, I enjoy looking at other people's perspective behind the camera and it's great to see everyone's progress. I also get super excited to see the footage all together, especially after witnessing a lot of the tricks and atmosphere !!
Hunter, what’s something you’ve learned about filming during this project?
It might be just developing as a person, but everyone’s human too. Being with people through some tough or annoying shit can bring the worse outta people but can also bring the best outta people. So learning that we are all human beings who go through their own ups and downs in life — that’s the most valuable lesson.
I know we are talking about skateboarding, but the environment it has taken me through, and the people and things you learn to deal with, is the biggest learning curve.
What was one of the best moments while filming this part? Why?
Definitely seeing the best out of people, and seeing the best skateboarding out of someone. Just seeing the best out of someone is the real gift.
Was there anything you found particularly hard?
I want to say the editing process, and then of coure - and all the public transport, haha. Having to take public transport to a spot 3 hours away was a bit of a mission. But that doesn’t compare to me wanting to quit making this part multiple times, because I wasn’t happy with anything I’ve edited — and making everyone else happy was really hard.
What did you enjoy most about working with this crew?
It has to be the fact that none of the homies fully quit through the year it took to make the part. Even though some people didn’t get clips for months, but still everyone showed perseverance coming together to make a final piece happen.
Even though there were some feuds between us, I appreciated that everyone put as much effort in as they could. Even though I kinda forced them at times, I am grateful they dealt with that and made the part happen.
