Skier vs. snowboarder hate is something best left to Disney movies, and the dudes over at Knife Show Inc prove that there’s some good stuff coming out of the sideways camp. They’ve added a forum to their site that is largely dedicated to providing advice on After Effects and other video related software and technology. I really like the idea of a film group making a forum intended to help people learn and improve on their art form.

In addition to dishing out advice, they’re holding video contests in the forums. They seem pretty informal, but it’s a hell of an opportunity to get your edit exposed to a different audience than it might if you simply put it on NS. Their last contest was based solely on editing and they specifically said that quality of riding doesn’t matter. I like that because the next great ski or snowboard filmer probably isn’t the sickest rider on the hill and he/she doesn’t need to be either.

We’re planning on bringing some edits to BroBomb once winter starts rolling, so I’m sure we’ll be taking advantage of some Knife Show advice.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with their work, this is my personal favorite:
