Sage Cattabriga-Alosa Launches A New Season Of Sony Mind's Eye

by TetonGravity
Mar 2014 - 959 views

The days of the classic Teletubby look of a bulky POV camera mounted to the helmet are numbered... instead Sage captures his early winter shredding the Alps during the jump-infused big mountain comp known as the Swatch Skier's Cup (Team Americas wins again!) with the low-pro Action Cam. An uber-wide 170 degree field of vision helps for up-close pans of tourists as they gape at the Matterhorn, the Carl Zeiss lens keep the view crisp even when Sage's Phish tour-length mane gets in the way, and the splash-proof body seems to have held up to its first product testing environment in the pow-choked woods around Little Cottonwood Canyon. We think Sage skis too smoothly to have really put the new image stabilizer to the test, but my chattery backseat runs down the blue squares over at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort are certainly up to the task. Sony's new Action Cam also features superb audio - key for catching those "Is it on?!" moments in the singles line of the most bad boy lift at your home hill. Drop in with TGR!

Sep 2014 - 934 views

In this episode of Sony Mind's Eye, Dash wanted to use the Action Cam to abandon the conventions of your run-of-the-mill POV edit. He worked with TGR production intern Matt Dillman to chop up the footage and throw in some animation, breaking up the usual format while also covering some fun bits from TGR's recent shoot in Sella Nevea, Italy. "Matt and I were really focusing on using as many different angles as possible to break up the traditional POV look and feel," Dash said about his time in the TGR studio last week with Matt. Using diverse angles from the production crew and audio bites?all captured on the Action Cam?Dash and Matt put together a different take on the ol' left turn-right turn experience while bagging shots for next year's film, Almost Ablaze. Sony's Mind's Eye is a ten episode series of self-edits. These edits give an insider's look at the team of TGR athletes as they document their adventures with Sony's Action Cam.

In Season 2, Episode 5 of Sony Mind's Eye, Angel Collinson showcases the POV footage from the ski mountaineering trip she, Mark Carter, Griffin Post, and Max Hammer recently completed while filming for Almost Ablaze in the Tetons. Their trip to Mount Moran relied on 25 people?including 10 porters?to haul 1,500 pounds of gear seven miles across a frozen Jackson Lake and to the base of the peak's most famous line, the Skillet. Angel's edit puts us behind the scenes of what will certainly be the most sweat-and-tears intensive runs of this year's film. Filmed entirely with Sony's Action Cam, this edit transports us from setting up base camp in the dead of winter to scaling 5,400 vertical foot lines on foot?and then it gives us a sneak peak of what those lines will look like in the film. Sony's Mind's Eye is a 10-episode series of self-edits that give an insider's look at the team of TGR athletes as they documents their adventures with Sony's Action Cam.

While cameras often immortalize their descents, Teton Gravity Research athletes are just as likely to find adventure when not filming?or, for that matter, skiing and snowboarding. Such was the case when Max Hammer, Griffin Post, Mark Carter, and Angel Collinson embarked on a multi-day camping mission to ski and snowboard big lines in Grand Teton National Park. With the help of Exum Mountain Guides, the athletes rode several of Mt. Moran's classic routes. Yet their time off the mountain was just as memorable. Whether repairing tent poles, just lounging around camp, or laying down iconic lines, each day was an adventure. To see more action from the crew's Teton mission, be sure to check out TGR's latest film, Almost Ablaze, when it drops this September.
