Shots of Alaska and Whistler from the 2011-12 winter
Words and Photos: Adam Clark
In part one of POWDER Senior Photographer Adam Clark’s behind-the-scenes photo gallery, we saw images from Silverton, Chamonix, and more. In part two of the collection, Clark gives us the scoop on shooting in Alaska with TGR and MSP Films during a record-setting winter. He capped off his winter shooting at Whistler for one of MSP Films’ spring park jump sessions. We pick up the conversation after he left Pleasant Camp, Canada, for Girdwood, Alaska.—John Stifter

Acting as a pseudo brain trust of snow movers that aim to make safer and greater terrain park features, the camp, now in its 11th year, is spread over five days. Drivers share ideas and learn new building techniques in the classroom and on-hill with different building exercises.

You’re up against Leticia Bufoni, a skateboarder. Those guys have their own video games and shit. How do you hope to win this thing—pray the audience mistakes you for a snowboarder? I hope to stay in this thing just purely from the heart and soul of all the skiers out there. Leticia is amazing, but the outpouring of support from skiers has been incredible, so hopefully that counts for something. And if anyone happens to mistake me for someone much cooler, that's fine too.

It’s hard to trip Nick McNutt up. If you ask him to share one thing he loves about himself, he won’t get hung up on his own ego, what he thinks you want to hear, or how awkward the question is. His response, “I’m happy.”

Back to the Future of Film With Shane McFalls
Traveling Circus cameraman Shane McFalls is a member of one of the six film teams shooting away in the parks of Mount Hood’s Timberline for Newschooler’s annual West Coast Sessions, a week-long park video shoot that serves as the casual bookend to the park ski season. And while camera technology has leapfrogged into the realm of 4K heli ball-mounted nonsense that can read people’s thoughts in super HD, McFalls is going for an entirely different aesthetic this week. While hipster film lovers may take great satisfaction in the mechanical whirring and 60’s look of cheap Super 8 cameras, Shane’s gone instead to the forgotten chapters of filmmaking history by bringing back a 1988 Panasonic VHS camera and a 2000-era VX 1000 MiniDV camera, a staple of skateboard videos. And not because the picture looks good.
