WHAT
The first Snowboard film competition that gives you the whole season to shoot, the summer to edit and offers a major cash prize.
Mountain Stories has been created for snowboarders and filmmakers to enable them to get the best shots and make the best cut of their story of the 07/08 season.
With thousands of DVDs distributed free from TSA stores UK wide, Mountain Stories will enable filmmakers to express their talent to the entire British Snowboard community.
The only constraints are that the finished films should be between 5 and 10 minutes long and be original work with cleared music.
All submitted films will be posted on-line and the top 6 – 8 will make it on to the final DVD
WHY
To release riders and filmers from the time and financial constrains of traditional snowboard short film production.
To encourage a new breed of creative and original snowboard movies.
To create a platform to showcase new and existing film-making and snowboarding talent in the UK.
To give a crew a bunch of cash.
