JP Auclair – All.I.Can
[Vimeeeee-Oh-Yeah!] <— 68,500
Finally able to watch JP Auclair's incredible urban segment in All.I.Can. When watching this film live in a theater - this was definitely a crowd pleaser and definitely one of the most entertaining skiing segments I have seen in quite some time.
Strong work JP.
Email reply from JP on December 5th, 2011 —
“Yeah.. pretty nuts.. the thing is going to hit 400K within the first week.. The Sherpas and I are still trying to wrap our heads around why it caught on like that. Must be the back flip, can’t go wrong with a backie!”

A year ago I challenged JP Auclair to take the time and make a show reel that encapsulates what Alpine Initiatives does for the launch of their new website.
It's a difficult task - because to make something great takes a lot of time and organization... all while you are super busy doing other things — and JP is always busy doing other things.
Las week the new AI Site launched with this video as their visual point.
Congratulations JP. You have inspired. Now it is time to connect and grow. In the coming month we will announce a partnership between Alpine Initiatives and Blackbox Case that will continue this exploration.

JP Auclair – All.I.Can. Teaser 2

JP Auclair – Movie Time
I recently exchanged some quick emails with JP Auclair to see what he has been up to. Fall is approaching so I wanted to find out what movies I could expect his involvement in this year.
Below is a quick list of where he has been spending his skiing and editing time.
Sherpas Cinema – All.I.Can
I got involved with the sherpas later on… So , no involvement in the teaser. But I shot with them quite a bit last winter, mostly for a urban segment, we shot it with a slightly different approach then I’d been doing in the past (the seg will be about 4 minutes) I’m pretty excited about it.
And right now I’m trying to help out with the movie as a whole, so I’ve became pretty invested in it. Really cool project!

After consulting with JP Auclair on the soon to be released Alpine Initiatives website – I began sorting through the masses of media we used to share back and forth.
This video amazed me back in 2005 and it still amazes me today. Shot in April, 2005 while skiing little goat in Haines Alaska. After I acknowledge he could be dead, JP recalls…
“hmm.. hard to say.. Seth was on top behing me.. so I’m sure he would have got to me in time.”
Even with someone like Seth Morrison who is exceptionally talented in the backcountry, I don’t think I would like to get caught in an avalanche.

JP Auclair just informed me that he will be visiting Colorado prior to his 2nd Alpine Initiatives trip to Africa.
“I’ll be in CO between the 23rd and the 28th of June,right before heading off to Africa for our second AI trip. I think we should throw some partied to raise some $$ while we’re at it.”
JP’s french canadian is obviously still high gear. Can’t wait to revisit with him as it has been a very long time since our last edit session. Alpine Initiatives is about to drop a new website… take a sneak peak here and feel free to donate to the good cause.
New Alpine Initiatives Website Coming Soon
