CAN-AM BEHIND THE SCENES

Hype Republic is the Aussie production company that has changed the content-capture landscape. You might not know them by name, but you’ve definitely been blown away by their content. This award-winning production company has worked on some huge projects, ranging from Hollywood blockbusters like Mad Max, TVCs with SuperCheap Auto, music videos for Midnight Oil, to the latest Red Bull campaign featuring all manner of high-performance action vehicles.

Needless to say, to be the best you have to work with the best. Hype Republic shoots with the best teams and the best equipment in some of the most exotic and remote locations in the world. You might be wondering how they manage to keep the camera so still when racing over sand dunes in Mad Max or around racetrack tarmac. Enter the Can-Am Maverick X3.

Whether it be shooting out in the desert or on racetrack tarmac, the Can-Am Maverick X3 has given Hype Republic the reliability and versatility it needs to capture that one-chance moment. The Can-Am Maverick X3 allows Hype Republic to capture shots that never have been before in real time, unlock new locations, storylines, stars and opportunities the film and production industry could only dream of.

Hype Republic founder, Allan Hardy, began using the Can-Am Maverick X3 on shoots for its stability, adaptability and ability to keep up with the action. ‘The Can-Am Maverick X3 is our

vehicle of choice for so many reasons—it’s built to keep up in terms of speed, as well as keep our crews safe, and we can modify the unit to make it fit-for-purpose for whatever we need on the day. Most importantly though, it helps us get those insane shots that make our work that much better,” Allan says.

The versatility of a Can-Am Maverick X3 makes getting those high-risk and challenging shots possible. It’s the trusted vehicle to get the Hype Republic team to those hard-to-reach places and moments; the Maverick X3 is made to travel over varied terrains, to go fast or slow, and gets the camera right up close to get that shot.

The reliability of the Maverick X3 is another huge plus for Hype Republic. It’s an industrial-built machine, and needs to be unbreakable for the kind of work Hype Republic does and on the types of terrain and sets they film on. With the speeds and action involved, you need a machine that can keep up, and that you can trust will help your team get the job done. Most importantly though, Hype Republic can trust that it will keep their team safe while out filming, travelling at high speeds and aiming to get as close as possible to adrenaline-filled action.

The modularity of the Maverick X3 means elements such as the roof can be removed, and equipment can be mounted to parts of the vehicle. With 4 seats, a single Maverick X3 can carry a driver, camera operator, assistant and Zoom, doing away with the need for multiple vehicles to obtain the ideal shot.

This venture between two cutting-edge brands has revolutionised how content can be captured. With the Can-Am Maverick X3, Hype Republic has been able to go further and do more. The Can-Am Maverick X3 has given Hype Republic the platform to create game-changing content that inspires and entertains.
