The world’s most famous climbing film production company, @senderfilms , finally premiered its popular Reel Rock 18 includes four short films. My memorable FA “The last one” in Mt. Mizugaki in Japan is in the film called With My Heart.
When I was in junior high school, Senderfilm’s Dosage 1 used to play at my home gym, and I must have watched it close to a hundred times growing up. @joshlowell editing in a dark room and @chris_sharma climbing Realization. As a young boy who didn’t know any better, the images were exciting and had a huge impact on me.
To work with them, to have my work seen on the premiere stage, and to be able to speak in front of a large audience, was an incredible thing for me. It was a dream come true, and I am still in a fluffy feeling that I can’t fully digest.
The premiere brought together climbers who have appeared in films. @angiescarthjohnson @honngy @icevince @mattgroom1 @danyil_boldyrev and @ali_logvynenko . Deep water solo, Alpine, Trad, and Climbing never die in Ukraine, all of which are wonderful films with very different essences. If you can watch it on a screen near you, please come and watch it!
Finally, I want to give a huge thanks to the directors @joshlowell , @mortimer_peter , @zacbarr , and Nick. And to all the staff who supported me a lot, thank you so much.
