Snowbird Freeride Comp Gets Them Amped

Snowbird Freeride Comp Gets Them Amped

I’m going to give it to you straight: The skiing out here really doesn’t suck as much as you think it should.

There was a moment where we wondered if those two would even be involved. I arrived on set (ie. Andrew’s house) to find the actors huddled … Continue reading

The Night Before 48 Hours

I tried to sleep. I know that I needed to and wanted to but sleep wouldn’t come last night. And then when it did it was scary. I kept dreaming that I was deep in the middle of the 48 Hour Project and as we watched the dailies played back I looked on worried. What … Continue reading
