I shot these a while ago, like February 2018, and it’s taken me probably too long to get around to editing them, mostly because I felt like they weren’t very good. But, now that I’ve put them together, and worked with the background, I’m much more pleased.
In the spring, Dale, Caleb, and myself wrote the storyboard to a short film for the Olympus 72 hr Filmmakers Showdown. The short is about a guy who is unable to touch anything with his hands. If he does, it disappears. It’s a shitty but manageable situation, until he falls in love with someone and wants to be close to them…. Then how does it work?
Hopefully the film will be out by the end of summer.
With super pros receiving the majority of the monetary compensation in snowboarding, there isn’t much left to go around. The sport itself doesn’t have much money in it. But I believe the inequality and limited resources is prying open snowboarding’s creative constraints, giving a lot of creative freedom to those who are realizing they will never be compensated well for their work.
This article explores this idea, a bit. But I’m going to elaborate more on this in a future King Snow article. Stay Tuned.
