It's hard to believe we are getting started on the 60th annual Warren Miller feature film. Yep 1949 Warren started this machine up and it's still going strong. This marks my 17th year with the outfit and I have know idea where the time went - I have to look through my passport to recall all the adventures - it's been an amazing adventure - THANKS WARREN!
So each September or October the production team gathers in Boulder to spend a few days making fun of one another and throwing around ideas and at the end we have somewhat of an idea of what we would like to do with the upcoming winter. When you look at the board covered with the names of great athletes and places - you can't help but get excited for the snow to fall. It's amazing how each year we all get the same stoke when the air gets a little cooler and crisp mornings greet us - I always give Josh Haskins at the office a call and say "it's about that time..." then for a few weeks we all seem to call in with the reports from our home towns - claiming snow and cold - Tom Day rings in from Tahoe, Micah from Sunny LA?, Kimbo for Sun Valley. It's a really fun process to be part of a core team (Max,Josh, Jesse, Tom. Kimbo and Micah) that collectively crafts the movie each year, everyone knows their job/place in the team so well - it's a great balance of talents. At the moment it's looking like we are going to head off on another epic and make a great 60th movie. More to come as the snow falls.
