Gothics Film Shoot: Pillow Lines, Back Flips and Corked 540's

Day two saw a continuation of day 1...clouds and snow. We knocked off some shooting around the lodge and helicopters while we waited for the light to improve. It was pretty interesting to watch Chris Patterson the Director of Photography use the steady cam to track Andy walking out to the helicopter.

Once the light came up it was time to load up and head back out. The 407 with the cineflex flew out with us and filmed the 212...it was cool to look out the front and see the 407 flying in front of...

Gothics Film Shoot: First Day of Filming

We woke up to clouds and light snow on the first day of filming...but it's canada so that does not mean we are sitting around the lodge waiting for something to break. We headed out and did some tree skiing....

...and it was GO from the gun for the skiers. After about a 100 meter warm up ski Jonny and Andy were checking out lines off a cliff band while Chris, Josh and Ilja got the cameras set up. That is the tough part for the skiers...filming sounds fun...and it is...but there is a lot of...

Friday kicked off the start of the film shoot at the Gothics. Josh Haskins and I came in from Boulder, Colorado; Chris Patterson arrived from Bozeman, Montana; Ilja Herb flew in from Victoria, BC; Jonny Moseley rolled in from the Bay Area.

It was pretty much go from the time we got of the plane. Josh and Chris got to know the greater Calgary area driving around to camera supply stores to pick up lighting, home improvement centers and at least one liquor store to buy a case of Corona.

Off to Shoot a Heli Ski Film

1983. Scot Schmidt launched off the Palisades at Squaw in Warren Miller's Ski Time. It changed how I thought about skiing forever. I remember sitting in the audience in Billings, Montana with my jaw on the floor as Scot skied the line with an ease I could not have imagined until then.

Fast forward to today. Friday the crew and equipment begins to arrive in Calgary as CMH and Warren Miller Entertainment (WME) prepare to spent a week filming based out the Gothics. I am excited. Are you going to...
