Since my last post I've been cranking out alot of film on the new flyfishing film - stops in Florida, Idaho and Alaska have yielded some great footage - huge tarpon jumping out of the water, shot at 150fps during the legendary "Palolo Worm" hatch. I then spent a few days in Island Park Idaho on the Henry's Fork - shooting with Rene Harrop and Mike Lawson. Both of these guys are icons in the sport and know the challenging waters of the Harriman Ranch better then anyone. After that is was onto Alaska and Katmai National Park - home to the Kulik River & Lodge - this was a great Alaskan Adventure filled with big fish, planes, tons of bears and the experience of staying at the first sport fishing lodge established in Alaska in 1950. My good friend Scott DaHarb spent a hot week in New Orleans shooting a segment for Rise on Redfish - the footage is great, lots of fish and crocs. Now the edit - I am swamped with prep on a car shoot now and have to cut the film, trailer and get all the promo organized. September 11 we will screen the trailer at the "Fly Fishing Retailer Show " in Denver. Then the RISE premiere is October 22 in Bozeman - so I better stop writing this and get editing.
I also saw a few rough cuts of the new Warren Miller film "Dynasty" and it looks awesome - as usual editor Kim Schneider is working his magic and making our footage look so spectacular.
More to come -
