Not many people have the luxury of eating two thanksgiving dinners back to back, but when Evan Schwartz heard he might be able to score two full spreads of turkey, he immediately dropped everything, packed up and made the 5 hour trek from Nelson to our couch in Kelowna. With this in mind, we had a solid shot list assembled. Dolly shots into a stack of yams, cablecams across the dinner table and super slow motion gravy pours were all lined up. We furiously ate our way out of budget in anticipation, leaving the rest of our plans to crumble. So, instead of the high brow dinner film which was initially scripted, we ended up having to mash our way down the trail, shooting a regular old mountain biking edit. Luckily for us, Evan was able to scrounge up a bike he found lying in the back of his pickup, so we spent a few days toiling away. Combining our efforts shooting and editing, it was a rewarding experience. We did this project for ourselves, not to fulfill obligations or make money, and we hope you enjoy the result. With a bit of luck, you'll be seeing a lot more of it in the future. - Liam Mullany and David Peacock |
Well, this is some pretty B-Grade chute ridin! - Evan Schwartz |

"Obviously you aren't aware that I have some highly acclaimed video work filming some of the best up and coming junior riders in Australia."
According to you it sounds like you know alot about what you're talking about, but to me it sounds similar to that scene in "Good Will Hunting" when that student at the bar tries to impress the girl with the stuff he just learned in class the day before. It's like someone who just learned what a video pan is instantly complaining about every locked off shots because following the rider is way cooler! It's not that I don't agree that focus pulls are cool, but variety is better.
Mix it up homie! Your videos will look better as a result. I would also recommend toning down the ego a bit if you want some real respect as a filmer. You don't go around telling people how good you are, you earn it. Good luck.
