Snöyran 2011 – full production!
Finally done with my latest project: Snöyran 2011 – the ”official” edit. Check it out below!
If you’re wondering about the coloring, I applied a simple cross-processing technique I wrote about in my earlier post.
Also got some sweet EGO-pics from photographer Daniel Olausson. Super nice fellow I met during the shoot! Thanks Daniel!
In the pics you can see pretty much the full setup I shot the whole video with. Loving the Swedish Chameleon Rig!
Thanks for this time Gällivare! Hope to see more of you someday!
Snöyran snowcamp edit
Here’s the first edit from Snöyran Snowboardcamp I filmed last weekend in Gällivare. It was a fun, chill few days filled with lots of friends.
I saw that Eric Johansson posted a photo on facebook of the gang with the description ”Class reunion”, and it really feels like that when filming with Lemke and the northern boys. Hope to hang around with them some more this winter!
What’s unusual for me with filming this edit is that I only used handheld DSLR. No tripod, dolly or crane. I also used only three lenses: The samyang 14mm f/2,8; a nikkor 35mm f/2; and a nikkor 50mm f/2. I could never do this without my Swedish Chameleon DSLR Rig, and the big hardcase to fit all my stuff.
As you can see I also used my beloved furry mic. DSLRs mostly won’t give you pro audio, but it sure helps with stereo and a decent windstopper! I also had good use of my DÖRR LED-panel when filming the after party. Not so sure everyone enjoyed it at the club though.
There will be one more edit coming from the main event. I’ll post that later. And if you’re wondering about the colours in this edit, I simply applied a ”cross process effect” using this tutorial for photoshop, but applying it in After Effects:
Transition Winter Awards and more…
Alot of exciting stuff is going down the coming week. It really feels like winter will finally be here! Today is the annual Transition Winter Awards – and many of my dear friends are nominated:
Rolf Nylinder and Viktor Wiberg – Railripper of the year
Viktor Wiberg – Rookie of the year
Kire – Rider of the year
Tove Holmgren – Female parkshredder of the year
Also nominated is the one and only Kuske as filmer of the year, and RANDOM BASTARDS as entrepreneurs of the year! I’d say the odds for a great party are good! I’ll be tweeting the awards ceremony live so, if you don’t already, follow me on twitter: @PetterSchanche
Also going down this week is the first filming-trip of the season! Yes that’s right, yours truly is going to the capitol of kok-kaffe, Gällivare! An event called Snöyran is taking place there the 24th-27th, and I’ve been called up to hang out and film the good times. It’s gonna be awesome!
Below is Tove Holmgrens online videopart. I helped her out with the editing of it recently. It has already reached 11K views!

See you tonight?
RB Tentacle!
Just realized I hadn’t posted this yet! Random Bastards released their latest film Tentacle for free streaming/download this week. I think it’s a killer film, with probably some of the sickest, most technical streetriding you’ve ever seen. Make sure you don’t miss it! Have a warm nice cup of coffee, sit back and of course enjoy the film in full-screen HD!
I’ve been filming with the RB-crew alot this past winter. It’s been a whole lot of fun, and I hope this upcoming winter will be as kick-ass as the last two. I’ve got quite a few shots in this film – but I’ve got to give it up for Kuske and Claes who’ve done a heck of a job putting it all together. Kuske is the man when it comes to editing – notice how he seamlessly stiches parts and music together. At one point I believe he actually uses three different versions of the same song (starts with Hasses part). And I can’t say I’ve ever seen an actionsportsfilm with a soundtrack containing Backstreet Boys… yet so well done! I laughed so hard when I saw it the first time. Claes is killing it with his 3D-magic. Do you like the 3D-tentacles and graphics in this film? Then you’ve got to check out his site, he’s worked with some seriuos big hitters in the past.
But anyhow! Now that Tentacle has dropped, I’m eagerly awaiting the release of Pirates Movie Production – Bottom Line (I’m supposed to have some shots in there too!). I’m afraid it won’t be released for free though, and I can’t figure out how to trick iTunes to think I’m an american (iTunes isn’t open for films in Sweden), so I guess I’ll have to order the DVD-booklet.
I’ve been working on my reel, but I can’t release it until these two films have had their go – so when Bottom Line drops I’ll be ready to go! Stay tuned!
RB Tentacle Update #2 Norrland!
Here’s the second update for the upcoming Random Bastards Tentacle snowboardfilm. Don’t miss the premiere party september 30th in Stockholm!
This update is different from the first one. Mainly because I simply didn’t have as much time to put into this one, since the premiere is closing in.
The update was filmed this spring in the northern parts of sweden: Umeå and Klimpfjäll. I’ve been wanting to share some of this material for so long! It was easily the most fun I’ve had while filmed so far… Hanging out with the full RB-crew in their own back yard… so many fun, creative spots! Even the backcountry kickers were actually ”urban” tow-ins in a gravel pit!
Equipment and gear used during the filming of this update:
Camera: Canon Eos 7D (Also a 5D for some timelapses), shot on 720p50
Lenses: Samyang 8mm f3,5; Samyang 14mm f2,8; Tamron 28-70mm f2,8; Lensbaby composer with creative aperture kit.
Tripod: Manfrotto 545 tripod with 503 Video head
Dolly: DIY dolly
Jib/Crane: Hague K8 HDV Boom
Lights: 2x Red Head 800W and some construction lights 500W
Other: LCD Viewfinder
Edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and Adobe After Effects CS5 with plugins: Magic Bullet Colorista Free.
RB Tentacle Update #1 Stockholm
So this is what I’ve been working on lately, the first of two video updates for the new Random Bastards full length Snowboardfilm: TENTACLE, dropping this fall.
When editing I take inspiration from the music I choose. This time it’s on the border to plagiarism;) check out the original Aphex Twin ”Windowlicker” musicvideo below. It’s one of my absolute favorites.
OBS! The actual music video starts at 4:17, and is NSFW!
The face-warp effect was achieved in Adobe After Effects, using Andrew Kramer’s Demon Face Warp tutorial.
Another plugin I used alot (perhaps a bit too much) was Optical Flares, a plugin for After Effects also by Andrew Kramer.
Equipment and gear used during the filming of this update:
Camera: Canon Eos 7D, mostly shot on 720p50
Lenses: Samyang 8mm f3,5; Samyang 14mm f2,8; Tamron 28-70mm f2,8; Lensbaby composer with creative aperture kit; nikkor 35mm f2,0; nikkor 50mm f2,0; nikkor 24mm f2,5; Sigma 10-20 f4,0-5,6.
Tripod: Manfrotto 545 tripod with 503 Video head
Dolly: DIY dolly
Jib/Crane: Hague K8 HDV Boom
Lights: 3x Red Head 800W, 4x55W Fluorescent lamp and some construction lights 500W
Other: LCD Viewfinder, Cokin quadratic filter adapter
Edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 and Adobe After Effects CS5 with plugins: Magic Bullet Colorista Free and Optical Flares.
Tentacle teaser!
And so it has dropped! The teaser for the new Random Bastards snowboardfilm ”Tentacle”, edited by the one and only Kuske!
This is where most of my footage from this year will drop, you can already see a whole bunch of shots in the teaser. In the upcoming weeks I’ll also post some official Tentacle updates, one from Stockholm and one from Umeå. So join Rolf below and keep a look out for the TENTACLE!
Umeå dag 8 – fotbollshuliganer!
Dagens spot var ett trasigt fotbollsmål som fick fungera som polejam! Ganska fiffigt att något som verkar helt värdelöst för någon annan kan vara kung för oss. Dagen presenteras av Kire och Klas i klippet nedan:
Jag beklagar det dåliga ljudet i klippet. Jag investerade i en lite bättre mic för en vecka sen och blev förvånad över hur dåligt ljudet ändå var. Efter lite testning visade det sig att det berodde på att kameran använde den interna micen ändå – micingången på kameran gick nog sönder i kraschen i Klimpfjäll! Svacka! Får skicka in den på lagning… blir antagligen dyrt!
Kuske’s 2011-season
Sweet swag!
