Just put together some of the shots I liked most. The season is over, but what do you think I will have to work more with next season? Filmwise, anything you like/ dislike/ want more of etc....








I know the song is used. just had to go with it.

Ive loved all the videos youve ever put out man. You have lots of talent. 2 (minor) things.

1. I didnt like the transition at 1:21.

2. Last shot was a great focus pull but I think you started the shot too early.

I feel like you and I have very similar filming characteristics, I am a firm believer in that a smooth or still tripod shot is always best. That was great, but the song was too fast for the skiing.

I really liked the colors, and the whole look of the video, the footage itself (even without the music) had a really nice feel (hopefully that makes sense)

I agree with what has already been said, but I also noticed a fair amount of moire/aliasing on the culvert at 1:29 (and through the shot). Idk if this is something you can control, even to a degree, or if it may even be just from how I am viewing on the web, but just a little thing to watch out for if possible.

Other than that, I was just wondering what your setup was for filming this, and what you used for color. Awesome job man.

Thanks! Im not completely sure if it is aliasing, or just the tiles making the pattern.. Anyways it could def look like aliasing/moire.

Shot with canon 7D and canon t2i
Lenses:
Canon 70-200 f4 L
Canon 50mm f1,8
Canon 15-80
Sigma 15mm fisheye

Glidecam HD1000
Selfmade dolly
Glidetrack SD
LCDVF

I used magic bullet for color, no presets.

great colors, very consistant
sharp images throughout
good mix of shots
some transitions were a little long, try to keep the action flowing without pauses.
