We partnered with Shokz to bring their open-ear headphones to the winter slopes of Revelstoke, British Columbia.

The idea came from the product: open ears, so the mountain stays in the mix. We built the film around that frequency, the sound of cold, deep powder and the edge of a ski carving through it. Half of it shot on the mountain, half in studio, with one rhythm holding both.

Weather and timing made it a demanding shoot, with a lot of adapting on the fly. After the main delivery, we pushed the cut further into a Director’s Cut: slower, more abstract, and closer to what we had in mind from the start.
