Team Malizia is the offshore sailing team led by Boris Herrmann: it races IMOCA 60s in the great round-the-world races while running an onboard ocean-science and climate-education programme. team-malizia.com ↗
Team Malizia races IMOCA 60s around the planet while running an onboard ocean-science and climate-education programme. Their stories move between the extremes of the Southern Ocean and classrooms — and their content has to work in several languages for a global audience.
We support the team's media output with documentary editing, story structuring from hundreds of hours of onboard footage, and multilingual subtitling in English, German and French. The scientific side of the team's mission — CO₂ measurement, ocean health, climate education — is treated with the same rigour as the racing.
The collaboration is ongoing across documentary and campaign projects, including the team's educational series for schools.
