Café Kraft DWS-Contest

Café Kraft DWS-Contest from cafekraft on Vimeo.

»An meine Haut lasse ich nur Wasser und Chalk« könnte der Werbespruch fürs DWS lauten. Und das Wasser war deep, die Beats wummerten ebenso, Mr. Clipstick bestätigte fulminant seine Ausnahmstellung als Koryphäe der Vertikal-Moderation, der Freibad-Rasen mit Blick auf die Stars war voll in Beschlag, die Stimmung vibrierte und die beiden King-Solisten des Abends hießen Megos & Würth und sind damit die Café-Kraft-DWS-Meister 2012 – Applaus!

In the BBC own words - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-18074424
'A new short film about Lochaber-based climber Dave MacLeod is being produced with an aim of showing it at mountain festivals around the world.
Video production team Wojtek Kozakiewicz and Lukasz Warzecha shot Mr MacLeod bouldering in Switzerland.
A heat wave made difficult climbs even tougher in an area called Magic Wood, before temperatures dropped and Mr MacLeod completed the challenges.
A 10-12 minute long film is being made for screening at festivals.
For 2013, a full length film will be released and made available as a free online viral video.
Mr MacLeod was filmed as part the production team's Polished Project, which features other professional climbers and international ice climbers.
Mr Warzecha, a photographer and visual artist, said: "Our upcoming film, Dave, will be telling a story of Dave's climbing career.
Mr MacLeod completed a number of climbs in Switzerland's Magic Wood
"The film centres around Dave's exploits in the Magic Wood - climbing New Base Line, Mystic Stylez and others - and at the same time it touches strongly through interviews on Dave's career and life.
"The final piece would be Dave's portrait as a professional climber."'

BD athlete Cedar Wright climbing The Wisdom in Eldorado Canyon, Colorado from Black Diamond Equipment on Vimeo.

Black Diamond athlete Cedar Wright just sent the biggest onsight of his life this past weekend: he got married. Congratulations go out to Cedar from all of us at BD. Below is a video that lensman John Dickey filmed and edited of a day-in-the-life of Cedar, from mixing music and editing footage to tackling one of Colorado's most classic 5.11s: The Wisdom, an airy line with substantial whipper potential from the crux 5.11+ pitch.

BD athlete Chris Schulte bouldering through the Colorado winter from Black Diamond Equipment on Vimeo.

Black Diamond athlete Chris Schulte lives and breathes bouldering 24/7, 365. So it's no surprise that he makes the best of Colorado winters and gets out bouldering even in cold, snowy conditions. What is surprising, as you hear in this video, is that Schulte actually prefers it to be freezing cold.

Daniel Woods and Paul Robinson prepare for and compete in the 2010 Bouldering World Cup competition in Vail, Colorado, part of the Teva Mountain Games. An outtake from the film The Hardest Moves, featured on the REEL ROCK Film Tour 2010. DVD and HD Downloads available at www.bigUPproductions.com

Last fall, from October 26-30, 2011, more than 600 climbers gathered with our team for Petzl RocTrip China. All participants discovered and enjoyed more than 250 brand new pitches on unbelievable limestone especially prepared for the event.

Among the highlights of the film, watch Dani Andrada’s first ascent of the extremely difficult 7-pitch Corazon de Ensueno (8c/5.14b), a route he put up in 2010 over the course of two trips to the area to prepare for the RocTrip. For this outstanding feat, Dani was awarded Climbing Magazine’s prestigious Golden Piton.

Other sequences include Steph Bodet and Arnaud Petit sending their project, Lost in Translation (8a+/5.13c), Gabriele Moroni’s first ascent of Coup de Bambou (9a/5.14d), as well as other images of spectacular climbs up and down the valley.

Yosemite Range of Light from Shawn Reeder on Vimeo.

I am a destination visual artist who specializes in photography, timelapse cinematography, & filmmaking.  I love to travel, so if you have a project in some far flung location, lets talk.

Yosemite National Park, the High Sierra, and the Eastern Sierra are some of the most beautiful places on earth. Ever since I serendipitously won a trip to Yosemite when I was 18, the beautiful Range of Light has captured my heart and become my home. Nothing brings me more joy than to share this life changing beauty with others.

Ever since I became fascinated with timelapse photography almost 2 years ago, after seeing the work of Tom Lowe, I’ve wanted to do a piece on Yosemite and the Sierra. Now after almost 2 years of shooting, I'm thrilled to share. I hope you enjoy my vision of my home, the majestic Yosemite & Sierra. Best viewed Full Screen with Sound :)

If you would like to license any of my clips or hire me to shoot for you, please be in touch.

Huge thanks to Kessler Crane and Lens Pro To Go. Without their help this piece would not have been nearly as good.

Also a huge thanks to all of you who help support me with your warm comments and continuing encouragement. It means more to me than you know.

I hope this inspires everyone to get outside and explore the beautiful outdoors, especially magical places like Yosemite National Park and the High Sierra. It's National Parks week and all of our national parks are free this week, so get outside and explore!
