The Nissan Outdoor Games Extreme Film winner
A few weeks ago a Nissan promotional team came to town and set up some big-screen TV’s in the square where they showcased the entries to the Nissan Outdoor Games Extreme film competition. The film competition features 5 teams composed of kayakers, mountain-bikers, rock climbers paragliders, skiers and BASE jumpers. Based on an original concept, this contest combines the performance of the athletes, with the creative and artistic dimension of a film competition. The 5 teams have 5 days to film themselves freely while practicing their sports. Each team is equipped with video cameras as well as editing computers. Every evening they have to come back to their ‘bivouac’ camp, set up somewhere out in the wilderness by the organizers. On the last day, each team has to hand in a tape containing a 5 minutes film to the organizers.
Cool huh? sounds right up my street that does. Click the picture below to see the winning entry from this year. I think it’s excellent. There’s something pure about it - probably due to the lack of sponsorship I’m used to seeing in ski-porn. Anyway - I’m impressed and I’m going to consider it something to aim at.
