Along with his abilities in the water, South African Olympian Calvyn Justus is also a passionate filmmaker. He has posted many videos on his youtube channel, including this video with a behind the scenes look at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.
He is currently in Rome, and is documenting his trip with a 4-part video log series. He is there filming the Arena Elite swim team who have gathered for a photo shoot.
The Arena Elite team is full of big names, with Olympic medalists Adam Peaty, Sarah Sjostrom, Chad Le Clos, Mitch Larkin, Emily Seebohm, Cameron van der Burgh, Ranomi Kromowidjojo and open water swimmer Ferry Weertman all on the team. Seven of the eight athletes won at least one medal this past summer in Rio, including three gold medals from Peaty (M 100 br), Sjostrom (W 100 fly), and Weertman (M 10KM OW).
Here’s a picture of the group from Calvyn’s twitter page:
