Beautiful cinematography, and I'm very jealous of your cameras. Loved the shots jibbing the ice hotel (I think that's what it is?). The music was great too, John Holowach works really well with those slo-mo shots.

Now this is exactly where you see the difference between a skiing edit and a skiing short film. Truly spectacular editing. I applaude you, Miikka Niemi. To make eight minutes feel like an almost full blown movie in the sense of art direction, filming and editing is truly a talent. And of course it goes without saying - the skiing was amazing.

The natural/unnatural Switch Cork 1080 Blunts were a sight for sore eyes.

Even those slower-than-mega-mo shots don't do justice for the size of that transfer-thing.

Best wishes for Pekka!

Is there another link to it? It's not in your Vimeo channel and the video on that site won't work for me. By the way, from what I've seen, flatlight films is my favorite film company now.

No problem, I understand.

It's just saying "Sorry, The creator of this video has not given you permission to embed it on this domain. This is a Vimeo Plus feature."

I've tried multiple times and it's done this every time. It seems like it's just me though.

But it should allow you to see the film. I doesn't allow embedding to another site.

So I guess it was just Safari that was messing it up. I tried another browser and it worked.

Amazing. I can't wait to see more from you guys.

late bump, but if you haven't seen it, watch it. the editing on the shot at 6:57 was fucking amazing, i had to rewind and replay a few times to take it all in.
