This short timelapse was taken while filming the second episode of “The Snowmakers”. Dane and I got up on the mountain at 7am to film the sunrise. It was a great morning

Dane Henry and myself just finished shooting the first episode of “The Snowmakers” for Heavenly Mountain Resort. What a treat to be up on the mountain at night, a unique experience. After a 25-minute truck ride up, the night of shooting began at Adventure Peak at the top of the gondola. This a cold spot on the mountain, and usually a starting point for the swing shift. Cold and wet night of shooting, the camera and me are still drying out. Captured on two Panasonic Hvx 200’s.
Here is Dane’s amazing edit.

I headed down to my old stomping grounds at Ski Run Marina for a little sunset shoot. When I arrived at the marina, I headed down towards the beach, nothing down there really stuck my fancy. Discouraged I headed back to my truck, as I looked up saw the fire pit. Having spent many summer nights by it, I thought I would do it a little justice. Pulled out my tripod, flipped my camera to 60p and got creative. I conformed all the footage from 60fps to 30fps in cinema tools. Nice effect, happy with the out come.

I was so excited to find out that some of my shots from last ski season of Ty Dayberry are in the new Powder Whore telemark ski film. As I sat watching the premiere of “Flake” at Moe’s Place, I almost jumped out of my seat as mine and Dane’s footage lit up the screen. Over all it is such an honor to be a small part of their movie, these guys are legends in the Telemark film industry. I got to talk to one of the filmmakers after the movie, he was jazzed we supplied him with some footage. Amazing night.

I joined Dane Henry from www.deeprootsmedia.com to shot a 30 sec TV commercial and a 60 sec web video for the Divine 9. I worked as assistant camera and dolly grip for this project. The Divine 9 is made up of a group of 9 golf courses in the Carson Valley. We spent three hot days filming each of the different golf courses and a couple of interior shots at selected restaurants. Great learning experience working with Dane, he is very creative and equally talented. Here is Dane’s edit which aired in the Northern California and Northern Nevada TV Markets.

This is the first video I shot and edited this winter for Heavenly Mt Resort. Comet Terrain Park is the first park to open at Heavenly Mt Resort each season. This season Heavenly’s Terrain Park Crew rolled out a whole new set-up of recycled features in an attempt to be more environmentally friendly. Some of the recycled features include oil drums, tires, and corrugated pipes. I spent this nice mild temperature Tahoe day filming with Nick “Pooch” Poohachoff, Joanna “Pnut” Dzierzawski, and Sal Rubio, all members of Heavenly’s High Roller Team. Remind you this is the first week of the season and these guys were bringing their A-game.
