I own and run a small start up production company, Run Jump Fly Productions. .We shoot on 1 fx1 and 1 xl h1. We both shoot edit and manage the company and I have just as of yesterday secured a deal for our movies to be a free download on the iTMS. We make extreme sports films and our focusing at the moment on skiing filming with the best of the British pro skiers.
This has been a huge learning curve for me. I’ve been teaching my self how o edit using final cut pro 5. And when I get back to the UK I will be taking some apple certified courses in London. I got a chance to edit a professional TV show while I was out in the mountains for some friends of our who where left in a huge mess when the production company they had hired to produce the show did a very bad job with the edit and left it in a huge mess when they left for the uk. I mean, there were spelling mistakes all over t he place, 1/2 second cuts.
Anyway, with no knowledge other than what I had picked up in a very short space of time I produced this in 4 days with only about 3 hours sleep in total. click on the video on the left had side to watch it. It’s a TV show called the Verbier Ride. This competition is held in Verbier Switzerland and comprises of a big mountain comp (skiing powder and dropping cliffs, huge cliffs) and a slope style type section (a big 17m tabletop kicker, and a rail jam session).
