2nd Annual Video Wars At Mountain High

If you missed the SECOND ANNUAL VIDEO WARS last week at Mountain High, not to worry because hopefully you will have another year to put something together that will impress the judges.  Just remember: it’s not all about who has the best cameras or how expensive your lighting equipment is.  They just care about how beautiful you look.  So be sure to put on pounds of make up and get that ZACK MORRIS haircut because those things count. 

Before Video Wars invaded Mountain High last week,  Peter Para didn’t know he would be taking home top honors for Best Photo, although I’m pretty sure he knew he would score high while Mikey Radziwon and Matt Ybarra tied for Best Rider. Craig Glover scored double honors with “Simple Failures,” winning Best Video and Viewer’s Choice, as voted by an animated crowd of videographers, riders, photographers, friends, and family at the Second Annual Video Wars After Party. All winners took home 2009/10 Mountain High Season Passes and a case of Monster Energy drink.

The entire collection of video submissions was screened before a live audience at the Video Wars After Party in the Bullwheel Bar & Grill. Highlights included comedic parody “Mamma Schmeeia” by Couch Boys Productions, “Steezy Styles” by Patrick Dougherty, and “Send It” by Anthony Fire. Check out highlights of the videos on the Mountain High website at.

Video Wars is a contest unique to Mountain High that was designed to showcase the creative talents of aspiring videographers, riders, and the crews behind the scenes. New this season, the category of Best Rider was added to recognize the hard work of the athletes who provide the content that video dreams are made of.
