Out-of-the-blue: this short movie introduces a group of young skateboarders cruising in the most remote spots of Dordogne, a french rural department. Le skate moderne’ is a half-fiction half-documentary video inspired by Raymond Depardon’s piece ‘La Vie Moderne’ (2008). Here costumes, landscapes, dialogues are inspired from this movie, but it definitely puts a new take on the ‘classic’ skateboard video. The main idea was to come up with something different from the ‘fish-eye’ lines of traditional skateboard videos, here the emphasis is put on storytelling and aesthetics. Skateboard is taken out of its urban environment. Pics by : Mehdi Blackmonday Pics by : Yoris Couegnoux Tweet
