Although you might not know Tom Journet, you’ve seen his video work somewhere in the last few years thanks to his ongoing projects with the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing team, Bell Helmets, and Team Fried. A 20-something from the suburbs of New Jersey, Journet cut an interesting career path at a very young age, first as a contributor for Vurbmoto and then as a hired filmer for brands in the industry, but nothing compares to the cult following he, Anderson, and Matt Rice experience around the world through their personal online videos. We’ve heard the chants of “Team Fried” for ourselves in the sands of the Netherlands and the stadiums of Australia, as the group aesthetic manages to connect with everyone while being completely abstract from the norms in MX videos.
During the COVID-19 shutdown, Journet went through the massive collection of hard drives that he’s filed with footage over the last few years and edited it all together for a full-length flick, “Team Fried: The Lost Files.” Shot around the world and at different times, the video is edited with each rider’s personality in mind and is matched to a diverse soundtrack.
