We strive to cause the rare magical goose bump that occurs when pictures and sound are squished together just right.

Felt Soul Media teamed up with Nick Waggoner and Yuki Miyazaki of Sweetgrass Productions in January 2012 to hunt the mythical Hokkaido Unicorn. The creature proved difficult to capture on film, so we just decided to do a little skiing. Lots of love and high fives to Patagonia and the 5Point Film Festival for helping make this short possible.

Unicorn Sashimi

October 11, 2014 by FELT SOUL MEDIA

Unicorn Sashimi was a personal project and a camera test—we wanted to see what it was like to make a ski film, and we wanted to take our Red Epic out for a trial run. We now have a whole new DEEP respect for ski filmmakers, and a freakish obsession with Japan that'll undoubtedly last forever. Huge thanks to the 5Point Film Festival and Patagonia for helping with finishing funds, and Anson Fogel for help with color.
