Transworld have put out a new skate video out called The Cinematographer Project. 13 of the best filmmakers in skateboarding were invited to produce 3-5 minute sections and the end result is pretty frikkin' impressive.

One particular part stands out above all others - Alien Workshop's. AWS have forever put out amazing stuff. I must've watched Photosynthesis a million times growing up (when we visited Philly, Alex had the pleasure of having specific ledges and stairsets pointed out to her every 5 minutes) and I've always loved Alien's distinctive art direction and cinematography (lots of found footage / collages / animation / photos edited in with the skating). Their work is immediately identifiable. Many hate on the arty stuff, wanting only skating, but I think it creates a rhythm and helps a part feel like it's been crafted rather than, like many videos these days, Final Cut to within an inch of its life.

The Cinamatographer section contains some of the best skating I've ever seen. Alien Workshop's team is arguably the strongest in skateboarding right now (so happy that Dill is going for it again) and seeing those guys together in such an intense little clip is edge-of-your-seat exciting. Watch it and then buy the damn video ya cheapskate.

Oh, and Jesus Christ at Bledsoe's tail slide (up top), Dylan's front board, Gilbert's switch flip, Omar's hippie jump and Grant's nose blunt (above).
