Afterglow of the lightsuit
Watch the full 12 minute film Oct 19: www.philips.com/ambilight
Presented by Philips TV and Atomic Skis
Featuring: Pep Fujas, Eric Hjorleifson, Daron Rahlves, and Chris Benchetler
From the depth of the creative visuals to the groundbreaking, never-been-done-before scale of the shoot, Afterglow is being hailed as one of the most cinematically profound ski movies ever made. Deep pillows and Alaskan spines, all filmed at night, with massive lights, custom made LED suits, and a national governments worth of logistics, planning, and civil engineering.
Filmed as a partnership between Sweetgrass Productions, Philips TV, and the Swedish Agency Ahlstrand & Wållgren, it's two parts creativity, one part branded content, and a pinch of masochism for good measure. Overall, it's an incredibly unique partnership between our vision of skiing and the color and light technology behind the Philips Ambilight TV.
Supported by: Atomic, Freefly Systems (MOVI), NiteRider, Golden Alpine Holidays, Alyeska Resort & Talvista Lodge.

As ski season fast approaches and we all start thinking about the excitement of tearing down a mountain, Sweetgrass Productions have partnered with Philips TV, Atomic Skis and Swedish agency Ahlstrand & Wallgren to release a night-time ski thriller for the release of the new Ambilight TV. Touted as 'the most cinematically profound ski movie ever', the visuals created by the glowing suits shot in the midst of the night make for electric viewing (excuse the pun).
