There are alot of great filmers/editors on this site but all of the good videos are burred in a mess of crap. Lets take this one post and each person should pick there best edit and embed it. Dont post a bunch of your stuff just pick your best one it can be ski related or not. Also put a little bit about how you filmed it what camera you used and cool things you did.

This is one of my favorite edits it has nothing to do with skiing. We filmed it all in one evening I shot from the back of a lowered pickup truck using a Canon XH-A1 using a Panalook preset. Then used Final Cut Smoothcam to get the shots nice and smooth

well up until this date I really haven't film too much that I am really proud of. Most of the stuff has just been over edited or not filmed well. Hell even this clip isn't really filmed well (tripod shake, wrong presets with the colors)...I just really like how the edit is put together and it is very calming.

This is one afternoon at the University of Connecticut last fall. Shot with my hvx200. in 24p. dont remember all the exact settings but yeah....

This was one of my favorite edits i've made, fun to film, fun to edit and it all came together really well. Not the most popular of my edits, but still my favorite.

Hope you enjoy:

This was my first real abstract project not shooting action sports and I was extremely pleased with how it all came together. I really liked the change of pace of shooting nature and general living. It was also the tightest editing I have done to date.

Shot with HMC 150 and Color Corrected in FCP.

Heartbreaker Edit from Haakon Lean on Vimeo.


Shot on a Sanyo Xacti CG10

I am by no means a good filmer or editor but this is my first and only edit (so far) and i'm pretty happy with how it turned out. It was shot in 3 hours of laps through the Mt. Ashwabay park in Wisconsin.

Don't personally think it's my best one, but wanted to post something that wasn't skiing related. I'm really happy with how it turned out though.

This one was fun because it involved some skiing and a little story line, not to mention my half assed compositing job on the special effects that made it so corny! haha

Not skiing related, but I did composition/vis effects on this piece. We shot this in 3 nights with the Canon 5D Mk2 (HD) and the Nikon D3 (5K).

That BMW M3 video is ridiculous, so sick! What were you guys using for a car mount? Also that had some very nice coloring and sound design, very impressive.
