Ricky Oyola - "Eastern Exposure 3"
Dan Wolfe Slapmagazine Interview
would you change something if you had more time/money/material???(in real to reel) I would've liked a little more time so that everyone's parts could've been a little longer. I also wish the production copies had the same music as the original edit. both time & music are usually the biggest constraints on finishing a skate video, so I always kind of expect it.
what's most difficult? photography or videography they're just different. setup time for videography is much quicker, unless you're using a generator/lights, but you can't really use anything but a make with video. photography definitely takes more technical know-how... think how many more video goons there are as opposed to photo goons. a VX2000 with a death lens makes any kook an 'accomplished filmer'.
Where the hell is Sergei Trudonowski? last I heard, he's living in nyc working at a restaurant, but that was a while ago.
How long did it take you to film Eastern Exposure 3? How was it filming Ricky Oyola for that part? about 2 years. it was fun filming rick, he's a good skater. I kept in shape keeping up with him that's for sure.
Can you give up & coming filmers/photographers any advice on how to break it into the big leagues? do it cause you want to, not for notoriety. get your skills down with your friends on your own time, not by littering the hip at a contest or demo with all the other goofs.
Out of all the videos you've filmed which was the most memorable? hard to say, maybe element world tour since I'd been friends with most of the guys for a while, and we traveled so much.
Out of all the skaters you've filmed who was the easiest to work with? anyone's easy when they're skating all the time. especially bam, reese, tim o'c, donny, dennis busenitz and tony trujillo. overall, maybe koston, but I haven't filmed him that much.
do you feel that the explosion of skating and the demand for it (media-wise) has led photographers to get a bit more competitive for shots? competitive? maybe just annoying
why did you decide to film ee3 in black and white? aesthetically, it's one of my favorite videos ever. actually, it was 'filmed' in color. I made it black & white while editing, because I wasn't using a computer back then for editing, just two vcr's, and the colors started bleeding really bad with each generation of editing.
what happened? after EE3, which is a serious amazing video (its the only video that REALLY makes you want to go out and skate) you kinda dissapeared. now the big playas are Ty and Fred. supfwifthat? I made the mistake of becoming a team manager and working for a skate company, which crammed a lot of nonsense in my brain besides making videos.
can we expect another eastern exposure? probably not, since I've lived on the west coast for over 5 years now.
Did you ever have problems filming any skaters due to personalities? wanna say who? when you work for a company, you're expected to film all their riders without bias, but there's always a kook or two.
favorite filmer (other that yourself of course)?
sturt back in the day. ty now.
If someone can't afford to throw down on a 3 chip straight away what camera formats would you suggest? whatever sony DV you can find in your price range.
what's your favorite video that someone else has done? video days
what is your favorite photo that you have shot? switch ollie of tim o'connor for an old vita ad.
last book you read? Last album you listened to? And...what do you like to do in your off time?
last book... the language of new media by lev manovich. last album... my whole music collection is on my G4 in iTunes... it'll shuffle for 18 days before repeating a song... I'm a nerd.
Exposure 3 did you have any idea it was gonna be such a ground breaking video?
I don't consider it 'groundbreaking'. I think people were just psyched on the energy the skaters in it had.
Have there ever been any tricks/lines/skaters that you were disgusted with, based on either their personality or skating? of course, but if you can't say anything nice... they're on the cutting room floor anyway.
what other photographers work do you admire? atiba, humphries, morford, o'meally
what's your favorite town for filming?(ny or sf?)
probably sf, but I haven't filmed in ny too much. must be tons of unexposed stuff there
Got any crazy stories from filming any of the Eastern Exposure vids? reese's entire part in EE3 was filmed in three weekends.
Do you think Fisheye filming distorts the reality of the trick being performed? sometimes, but no skater seems to mind when you make his trick look bigger/better than it was.
what makes a good video for u? people with good styles, a good variety of music, clean filming and editing.
Why are French Fred videos so boring? you tell me. I don't think they are.
Do you think pink is pretty? I have a pink crailtap shirt, but I don't say the word pretty too often.
have you already "been there" and "done that"? sometimes I think that, but then I realize I just need to find a new idea to keep it fresh.
What are your 3 favorite movies? (not necessarily skate vids)? requiem for a dream, de constructing harry, most chris farley movies
dan,in your opinion what makes a video exciting and inspirational.editing or angels.flashy tricks or insane jumps.big name pros or underrated AM.music that flows or rocks? see #25
what are your favorite wheels? hard or soft? big soft wheels on my filming board. hard 54's on my regular board

El rider irlandés Dan Wolfe “Big Bad Wolfe” vive en Dublin y nos deja un video probando varias líneas de un pequeño bikepark que hay al Sur de la ciudad, de hecho muy cerca de donde estoy viviendo. En la entrada sobre trail centers de hace un par de semanas comenté de la mezcla que hacen en Irlanda y UK de senderos de flow y naturales en pequeñas montañas donde se intenta aprovechar tanto como…
