The lowdown with Herb Corona


With Kelly Slater and Herb Corona at the Rip Curl Pro 2011
Herb Corona is a video maker who hails from Caracas, Venezuela, and now resides in Geelong, Victoria. I met Herb surfing at Jan Juc - he is a super positive, motivated, inspiring, talented and friendly guy and was one of the only ones out there smiling.

Herbie is involved in many sports media projects: a freelancer for his own media company, Surf Coast Media, a cameraman and editor for local media and sport companies, and now a media teacher.

We discussed his attraction to working in sports media, how he got to where he is, his views on new media, advice for potential media workers and what the future holds for him.



Since interviewing Herby, we linked up to cover local news and sport for News Geelong including the 2011 Rip Curl Pro2012 Rip Curl Pro and stories with Pulse Television.
