The contest is an aim to re-define the entire way of looking at a skateboarding contests. No 30 second runs, live audiences or one man shows here. This is about putting together 4 teams of skaters from their respected sponsors ( DVS, ETNIES, C1RCA & DC ) along with art directors, photographers, videographers and production teams and asking them to raise the bar.
Transworld puts up a simple, clean warehouse space littered with moveable obstacles and asks each team to come up with a film under 5 minutes over the allotted 9 days. The production is then judged based on 4 key components; 1-Action 2-Creativity 3-Photo Standard 4-Editing. The contest becomes a massive team effort involving much more than simply skateboarding. It’s about creativity, innovation and collaboration.
The winner has been officially announced an the results are below, posted with their respected videos
THE WINNER – ETNIES: “THE LEGEND OF BOXTON SQUARE”
The rest of the amazing entries!
DVS: “WOOD”
C1RCA: “BROKEN DREAMS”
DC: “IN THE CITY”
So I’m curious wether everyone thinks Etnies was the real clear winner. I’m sure it all comes down to personally opinion, but thats what I’m curious about.
Me….I’m all over the DVS “Wood” video. Contemporary, innovative and pure visual pleasure.
