We are quietly proud of Bucket Clips and its growing presence in the freeski world. Rosina and Lui have been killing it in bringing this project together for the past two years, making a pretty seamless and entertaining movie entirely from community-sourced women's content, highlighting the depth of talent and interest in our little niche corner of the skiing universe.

This year, the project grows again and takes on a new element. For the first time, we have some planned trip based segments featuring crews of riders who have submitted clips in the past. Some of those trips have already gone down, with others happening as I type this, with the goal of having these segments in the movie alongside the clips submitted by skiers from across the globe. On which note, TODAY marks the opening of submissions for Bucket Clips 3.0.

We're calling all FLINTA skiers to submit your clips and feature in this year's celebration of FLINTA freeskiing. We're aiming to make the movie feel a little more polished this year, so we've updated the submission guidelines as follows.

Filming guidelines

Resolution: 4k (3.840 x 2.160) or higher

Framerate: 50fps / 100fps. Realtime clips can be 25fps. Try to use the highest bitrate possible on your camera

Color: Film in a flat profile if possible (vlog etc.) or Cine-Like D. If neither of this is possible, standard is fine, too but it would be best to get flat footage wherever we can.

PLEASE FILM IN LANDSCAPE ORIENTATION

In addition, please aim to get:

- Portrait shots of every rider (1x with full upper body, 1x face)

- Shot of the rider(s) in front of “their” spot (especially for street)

- As much funny/random/stupid stuff that happens along your trips, we’re trying to make this thing a bit more personal this year. A lot of feedback was that people are interested in seeing more of you as persons besides the ski action.

*None of these are hard rules, but it will make the project so much sicker if you can stick to the guidelines.*

It isn't particularly easy to get a project like this off the ground or even to break even in making it. Both myself and Rosi have spent a huge chunk of time trying to drum up support from sponsors so that the crews aren't losing money on their film trips. So far only Newschoolers, Armada, and Mons Royale have jumped on board. We have therefore started a GoFundme to try and help support them. Should you want to support the project, you can donate here.

You can check out the past two projects here, to see what it's all about:

Cheers all, we can't wait to see what you come up with!

Love,

Rosina, Lui & Twig
