So we received this email with the subject “Finnish Snowboarding Champs 2011 filmed with phones“:

Hi Tom,

I would be more than happy if you could share this on your website.

It’s shot only with Nokia N8 phones. Here you can see the whole video made for tv:

I think that’s the first snowboard thing shot only with phones so if you like it might be interesting story. We have interesting making of pictures with real filming equipment with phones.

Talk to you soon.

Best regards,

Miikka Niemi, Flatlight Films

You’re welcome, Miikka!

Watch ‘Frames’ – The Slowest Snowboard Film Ever

When we say ‘slowest’, we don’t mean that it hitches a ride on the Happy Bus, or that the riding is a little backwards, we simply mean what we say – Frames is mainly shot in über-slow, ultra-sharp HD by our Finnish homie Miikka Niemi at Flatlight Films.

Miikaa headed up to Ylläs for a few days last spring, with Petja Piiroinen, Matti Kinnunen, Elias Veijola and Toni Kerkelä in tow along with a couple of filmer buddies and a bunch of fancy cameras. Frames is the result. Check it out, and prepare yourselves for super good cinematography and heavy kicker riding.

Teaser for The Slowest Shred Flick Ever

Tom Copsey — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 10:26:06 +0000

Watch the slow-mo teaser for Frames.

Our buddy Miikka Niemi of Flatlight Films fame (remember the Scrapbook Project and Goodtimes?) reached out and let us know that he’s got a little project in the pipes.

Back in April he hooked up with riders Petja Piiroinen and Matti Kinnunen in Yllas, Finland, and shot a four-day session that he’s editing into a short movie that will drop in September. We’ll be looking out for that one for sure. Check the super slow-mo teaser.
