Ok, everyone loves to critique ski films. So, lets here what would you include in your film. You can get any skier you want to ride for you. What music? What locations do you shoot? What type of lifestyles? Etc.
I wouldn't want to make the normal super-conventional movie that everyone seems to do.
Riders: Pep, Pollard, Benchetler, Blake Nyman, Mahre, Dylan Hood, B-Dog, Downey. Somewhat well-rounded crew, and I'm a huge fan of nimbus. Would love to have a sick jump segment and some signature B-Dog rail smoothness.
Locations: Obviously I'd shoot at Hood for the amazing backdrop and super epic spring sessions. Urban in my hometown of CALGARY, and I'd like to shoot the pow seggies in Whistler backcountry and Japan. Wouldn't necessarily be a super-long movie, just quality all around, and keep it interesting.
Music: Lots of mellow reggae, I like Tanner's music choice in his movies, but just a little more laid back than that. Plenty of acoustic stuff, lots of acoustic guitar for sure.
Lifestyles: I'd love to have a segment that showed what the skiers did when it was just a regular day in the park. Like, instead of putting all the bangers into an edit, throw something together that actually portrayed what it was like when they were skiing. I'd also like to have an edit showing the skiers doing their other hobbies/interests, whether music, biking, surfing, art, or whatever.
