This season’s snowfall has been erratic to say the least, but it doesn’t mean we’re not out there trying to make the best of it. Deer Valley Resort epitomizes this mentality as their grooming team works hard to keep their ski runs at the world class level skiers have come to expect from North America’s top rated resort.
The first video was created to show what the grooming team does between when the last chair stops and the first chair spins in the morning. We were directed to try and capture the beauty of the night grooming, and we did our best to do just that.
This second video features Two-time Olympic Gold Medalist Ted Ligety for a quick promo for Deer Valley Resort.
This video is the latest one in our series with Ski Utah and Hestra Gloves loosely themed "life quality." It sums up this desire for balance and generosity while leading a life that has meaning. The video has been incredibly received, and we’ve loved the positive comments:
"So proud to know this guy. Whoever produced this did such an excellent job of portraying Gin's personality. And even then it's still such a small sliver of who this man is."
"Gin is such a generous, friendly, hard working guy. It was a pleasure getting to know him and now call him a friend."
"Super, the world need more men like him 👍"
"Yeah buddy, proud to be your friend and lone pine consumer. Keep 🎶dancing on the mountain 🎶"
Thanks to Ski Utah and Hestra Gloves for being committed to sharing meaningful stories.
Recently we’ve created several motion graphics advertisements for Salt Lake City based Uinta Brewing. This short ad was created to run in theaters on the big screen. It has been an honor to work with Uinta, especially since we have long been fans of their products and their eye-catching branding. Forget the map, pack the Uinta!
Tyler and Dillon Green asked me to create a new video for the updated Cache Basecamp System v2.0, so we got together on a sunny, chilly day and had a fun time creating this new video. I’m wishing them all the best with this popular new update. You can check out their products at Cache.
This is the latest in our ongoing series with Hestra and Ski Utah in which we feature a Utah local who values quality of life and an outdoor lifestyle. This video features Hestra and Salomon athlete Drew Petersen.
Earlier in the year we enjoyed working with KJUS to shoot their 2021-22 Winter Collection Brand videos at Deer Valley Resort. We’re now happy to see the videos being put to use to promote the KJUS brand. The shoot was a success due to the tremendous amount of help from the DV crew, the KJUS marketing team, Eric Schramm Photography, as well as the amazingly talented Ted Ligety, Chris Pearson, and Dairrin Bowers.
As a 5x medalist at the XGames, 2x World Champion, Amazing Race finalist and co-owner of the recreational trailer company, Escapod Trailers, Jen Hudak has always had an adventurous spirit. This video for Hestra Gloves and Ski Utah peeks into Jen's daily rituals of mom life, entrepreneurship, and sharing her love for the mountains with her husband and young son. We even convinced Jen to hit the halfpipe at Woodward Park City. Thanks to Jen & Chris for their time and patience. Big thanks to Hailey Klotz at Ski Utah and Drew Eakins at Hestra for their continued support as we move into season 3 of this ongoing video series.
This is a video I’ve wanted to make for a few years now. We love making videos and we do love enjoying cocktails with friends, so when it came time to do some camera and editing pre-production tests it seemed like the perfect excuse to make this video. It might not feature skiing or the outdoors, but we’re very happy with the end result. Cheers!
A short video featuring Salomon athlete Mali Noyes enjoying some early morning mountain biking above Park City. This video was created from b-roll shot during a project for Hestra gloves and Ski Utah.
These are three photos Powder Mountain ran as ads in Backcountry magazine and Arkade magazine. Thanks to Powder Mountain for their continued support and strong relationship, and a big shout out to Chase Burch, Jim Forster, and Bryan Platter for their time and talents on the mountain.
We were lucky enough to film Olympians Ted Ligety and Kaylin Richardson as they enjoyed a morning of high speed groomer skiing at Deer Valley Resort, Park City, Utah. Video produced by Ski Utah.
This video was shot and edited in one day at Powder Mountain, Utah for Ski Utah. The video features Emma Morgan and Wyatt McGregor skiing on January 7, 2021.
Thanks to Alta Ski Area for being such gracious hosts for our Ski Utah video shoot to kick off the 2020-21 ski season here in Utah. Skiers: Charlotte and Dave Miller
It’s always a pleasure to work with great people while shooting in our home town. That was definitely the for this video. Dillon and Tyler Green, entrepreneurs and owners of Cache Inc., asked us to create a video to promote their Cache Basecamp System - a modular tailgate pad that includes removable chairs and cooler. With a relatively short timeframe to plan, shoot, and edit the video, we did a lot of pre-production planning for locations, shots, and transitions. This planning was invaluable in making the shoot go fast and relatively easy. With his many years in front of the camera for NBC Sports, Trace Worthington was the perfect choice to highlight the Basecamp System and provide the voice over narration.
We've been extremely lucky to explore so many inspiring places in the Western US. After many adventures we assumed we could always venture out and discover new places, meet amazing people, have some laughs, share a few cocktails, eat yummy meals in the mountains. This year challenged our assumptions, and made us even more aware of enjoying every day and every experience. While a lot of our plans have been modified, and our grand Canada trek has been indefinitely postponed, we are so grateful for the wonderful people and places in our own corner of this earth.
Yeah, it’s a bit early to think of skiing and snowboarding, but I came across this video I created last season for Lucky Slice Pizza and it made me smile. I’m enjoying summer, but my mind is already wandering to thoughts of playing in the snow covered mountains.
It has been a strange year, but while maintaining social distance and keeping our travels to the wild open spaces of the Intermountain West, we managed to still have a wonderful summer full of creativity, adventures, and fun times.
What’s better than winter and a wedding? The answer: not much. Here’s to the end of an interesting, but wonderful winter.
