Josh Knox... Check out my 08/09 film 'Bloggers Delight'!

Hey everyone on Newschoolers. My name is Josh Knox – I was Jon Olssons’ 08/09 filmer for his video blog.

This year was amazing. Jon is one of the hardest working athletes out there, and I had the privilege to film with him and some of the other best skiers in the world for 8 months. It was incredible. In July, I decided – with a need for summer in London, and wanting to shoot other sports in the fall, that I no longer wanted to produce the video blogs. Jon and me are still great friends, and no doubt I’ll be working with him in the future at events etc.

In my 8 months of filming skiing, I constantly put 100% into creating good video blog content for jon-olsson.com. Although, with doing daily videos, it is very hard to get creative everyday. I think I achieved that, and Jon’s lifestyle presented great opportunities for diverse sking and lifestyle. After I left the blog, I amassed footage I had gathered over the year, and thought you peeps on newschoolers might want to watch it – being summer and all. I think it will whet your appetite for the coming season!

So here is the link to my film. It is done traditional -ski movie- style, although it was never planned so don’t kill me for the lack of dolly and heli! Hehe.
Some of the athletes that have parts – Andreas Hatviet, Tom Wallisch, Oscar Scherlin, PK Hunder, Colby West, Jon Olsson, Anders Backe, Tanner Hall, Jacob Wester, Simon Dumont, TJ Schiller, Henrik Harlout, Bobby Brown, Phil Casabon and a few more.

Check it - http://vimeo.com/5661872

Hope you guys enjoyed watching my videos. Check some of my photo stuff over at www.flickr.com/photos/joshknox

I am definitely up for filming skiing next winter! And thankfully, I have plenty projects in the pipeline.

If you are in skate mode, check this skate film I did with my little bro - http://vimeo.com/4490195 that was actually filmed in 1 day.

Thanks for the support.

Enjoy the shred!

Welcome to Newschoolers Josh !

Here's your embed for the first video

Bloggers Delight from londonboy on Vimeo.

What really impressed me with this one is that I had seen most of the shots on the blog(since I've followed it all winter long) and I've enjoyed the whole thing. It didn't feel like you just put your old shots "in the microwave" to make them look fresh. The edit was truly a pleasure to watch.

Tom Knox Day In The Life from londonboy on Vimeo.

It's really impressive for a one day edit. There was lots of banger shots. Your bro has a lot of talent and it's well edited.

And by the way, your edit was posted a little earlier today. Here's the link to the other thread. (for some reason I can't make a real link today...)

really great stuff and i gotta say, i've always thought that a regina spektor song would work in an edit but NS would bash it, but your music choices were on point, loved it.

Yeah the music was a tough one with the video blog, we had to get full rights to use the songs...

In case you were wondering, here are the songs in order that appeared in my season edit

- Moby, Natural Blues
- Wyclef Jean, You Say Keep It Gangster
- Regina Spektor, Fidelity
- Fallacy and Fusion, The Groundbreaker
- The Futureheads, Hounds Of Love
- Guro Josh Project, Infinity 2008
- Coldplay, Beautiful World
- Bob Dylan, The Man In Me...

Enjoy,
Josh

I'm going to really miss your blog posts, I was always impressed with how fast you edited them and got them out.
Definitely post up more of your brother's skate edits when you film them; that one was DOPE!

Wow, I never made the connection between Josh Knox and Tom Knox until today.. anyway Tom killed it in that edit and the filming was sick. Any idea when Square One is coming out?

That aside props on the ski video, also dope!

You're the man Josh! With all your filming and editing talent + the people around you, you could make a sick "extreme sport movie" with just a Knox touch of everything! Would have been epic! Hoping to see some more sick stuff from you in the future, and good luck!
...We miss you at the blog...
