Another making of the photo, I guess it’s pretty popular now huh?
This one is a bit different though, it’s a video with some of the action footage as well as an interview with the skier, Matt Walker. This was straight up video game shit. Sliding a lift cable. It’s one of those things I’ve wanted to shoot forever and figured it would never happen. Fortunately for me, I work with Pete Alport at Poor Boyz Productions. Pete likes to come up with crazy shit for pro skiers to do. This video was put together by Salomon as part of their Freeski TV series.
The next installment of the teaser season brings “Every Day is a Saturday” by Poor Boyz Productions. PBP is one of the three film crews that I regularly work with, one that I spent about 3 weeks this Spring shooting with at Mt. Hood Ski Bowl and at Mt. Bachelor, both in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. We shot a lot of pretty sick features this Spring, some of which is shit that you just thought went down in video games. Check out the teaser below.
It’s teaser season for the upcoming ski moves and the second installment so far this summer is for “Refresh” by Level 1 Productions. Level 1 is one of the film crews I work pretty closely with throughout the Winter seasons. I’ve been able to go on trips with them to Montreal, Quebec City (for a feature in SBC Skier Magazine for this upcoming Winter), Grand Rapids, Copper Mountain, Mammoth Mountain and of course a lot of work at home here in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was a really good year and definitely working with Level 1. Check out the teaser below. I’ll be updating the blog soon with some photos that didn’t make the cut with the magazines for the upcoming season but that I was still really stoked on.
Jossi and Byron Wells are two of the most talented skiers in the Southern Hemisphere. Jossi has been winning or on the podium in most of the freeskiing contests out there and Byron had his first X-Games appearance this year in the Superpipe. The Wells family house in Wanaka, New Zealand is a breeding ground for New Zealand ski talent and it won’t be too long before the younger brothers Beau and Jack start showing up on the radar of the freeskiing world as well. I’ve known the family for 4 years now and have been fortunate enough to work with them now for the same amount of time.
Check out Jossi and Byron at Cardrona Resort outside of Wanaka, New Zealand in this first episode of a 8 part series this Winter season (in the Southern Hemisphere) so keep an eye out for many more of these to come this Summer (for us in the Northern Hemisphere).
Most of you guys that are following my blog have already seen this teaser but for those that haven’t, check it out.
This is the 9th ski movie put out by Rage Films - Dan Norkunas, AJ DeSaint Phalle and Hennie Van Jarsfeld. It’s always great to see what comes together after working with them shooting still photos all season and I’m stoked to check out the whole thing. The movie features Kyler Cooley, Dylan Natale, Mike Mertion, Ian Cosco, Joe Schuster, Derek Spong, Mark Dvorak, John Strenio, Alex Schlopy, Gus Kenworthy, Giray Dadali, Cody Ling, and Joss Christensen.
