So, we're very close to announcing the edits nominated in the top 5 spots for the NS Movie.
First off, I want everyone to know that you need at least 30 votes for your entry to be considered.
Second, we might actually choose 2 or 3 alternate edits, in case someone in the top 5 doesn't pull through, or makes a shitty re-edit.
Once the Top 5 have been announced, they are required to make a new edit, following some guidelines, rules or themes. We need ideas for cool themes and rules, please keep in mind that most people are finished filming for the season, so they won't be able to re-film any skiing, they might be able to shoot some lifestyles stuff, but let's try to keep these guidelines within the range of editing.
Post all of your ideas here, plus karma for good ones

definitly needs time limit. 5-7 minutes?
Theme should be something really specific like jibs or urban or jumps. see what they can do with that.
but the rules for the original were pretty good and straightforward. I'd stick with those for amount of people and such

1) no - i hope u realize how long 7 minutes is for an editor
2) no - variety is KEY

i like the mini interview idea.
before each seg, have the riders answer a few questions.
could be personal, about NS, funny, whatever....

fonts should be the same or really similiar in each edit. Is there an into being made cuz i movie wouldnt flow well without one. It could be something similiar to the poorboyz commercials.

don't worry about the fonts and stuff like that, i will take care of all the final editing, I wanna know a sort of theme for the movie, something they can edit or film even though the season is over

I personally think that the NS movie should have segments from different parts of the US/Canada. West coast segment (all the west coasters edits linked together and shortened with all their banger shots), east coast seg, midwest, whistler kids...etc

So you finally realized that having people send you shots and editing it yourself was a horrible idea, good work.

I think it would be cool if for an intro of one of the segments you have someone on top rated videos and then they click on one to watch it and its the segment, just try to incorporate the site into it

Cool idea..
Film someone clicking on the video segement. It creates a good break for dissimilar editing styles, creates a space to insert some humor, a short narrative can be added and it markets NS to the uninitiated.
Solid idea!

you could also incorporate that Farps program, i think thats what its called, the one that takes video of your computer screen, so then you can show what they are clicking pretty well

i think a great opening segment would be like a chase secene type thing, a bunch of guys running through the streets in ski gear knocking eachother into trashcans, walls etc. the end of this race would be a pre-prepeared urban, the first skier to reach it chase would slide it, afterbang, and claim FIRST!!!!!1!!!ONE!!

sarcasm i hope? the worst idea EVER.
itd be nice to have at least one with good backontry and powder
definitely have everyone give a shot out to NS
and the first in line idea is good too
have everyone filming them in all their ski gear waiting first in line for something...
thatd be sick.

Maybe have, at the beginning, and at the end some transition type of thing.
ex: Beginning of each shot have a ball being thrown to the rider, and after their segment, have them throw the ball straight up. And then the next person will "catch" the ball and then there segment goes, and then they "throw" the ball to the next person. It would involve everyone to film a shot of them having a ball thrown to them and them throwing a ball, but it would be cool.

lol or have a hammer passed around and when they get it they say " i help'd build it , I help'd built it too, I help'd built it and now its mine!" lawls. pretty good idea but its over used.
how about, doing an evolution of music styles. each crew could be assigned a music style to edit with and it would go in order of evolution. you could do ski music evolution or just popular music evolution. that way there is a lot more variations in the music styles and everyone is happy. you could also film some corney scenes. ex: lets say you have disco ( of course you would find a rare disco song that is actualy good) you could film a couple shots with a disco ball and some friends dressed up like gapers on "roller skates" and have fake mustaches and just do some dumb stuff. I think it could be a good idea.

i think every segment should have the question
"how do you get to chad's gap from the bottom of alta?"
with their own answers
