Tech Talk with Burton@Heavenly

Here is piece produced for the Burton Store at Heavenly. This was produced by Fred Wymore, shot by Dane Henry, edit/graphics by myself. This is the first video in a series we will be creating for Specialty Sport Ventures. This spot will air on the TV show Another Heavenly Morning.

Killebrew Canyon Location Scouting

With help once again from Heavenly’s Ski Patrol, Dane Henry and myself got a personal guided tour through Killebrew Canyon. Armed again with two cameras, Dane shot the wide shot from the promise lands, and I grabbed the tights from below the fingers. Even though we captured some killer video, this was ultimately a scouting for future shoots in the canyon.
Thanks to Jeremy and Colton for showing us the goods.

McCall Winter Broadcast Spot

Here is a 30 second TV broadcast spot produced for a local reality company here in South Lake Tahoe. The spot will be airing in the northern Nevada and local markets. Dane produced this spot from our library of stock footage, which will soon be available at a new site were working on. This is the first in a series of commercials for McCall Reality, look out for more coming soon.

Mott Canyon

With the opening of Mott canyon, some of Heavenly’s steepest terrain, Dane Henry and myself headed out to make some turns and capture some frames. Escorted by ski patrol, Dane, myself, and two models headed out to the canyons an hour before the general public. This was another two camera shoot, Dane shot all the wide shots from across the canyon, and I shot the tights. Special thanks to Eric Burkholm, Heavenly ski patrol snow safety director for helping us get to the location.

The Snowmakers 3

By far one of the most challenging shoots I’ve been on. I give the snowmakers a lot of credit, because their job is tough and demanding. Dane Henry and I headed up the mountain with the swing crew at 7:00 pm. By snowmobile escort we captured the crew moving guns and setting up on Ridge Run. The winds picked up around 9:00, and it got cold. Despite all that Mother Nature was throwing at us, it was still a good time.

Opening Day

Heavenly’s earliest opening day in years, plus some of the best snow I’ve skied this early. With the hard work of Heavenly’s Snowmakers, Heavenly is the first Ski Resort open in the Lake Tahoe Basin. The video team was in full effect. Dane Henry headed up the hill with three models, and captured some amazing skiing. I stayed down in the village and shot around the gondola. Beautiful morning of filming, a blue bird day, complemented by a light blanket of snow left from overnight.
