announces
acquisition
of
second
video
production
company
with
plans
to
launch
2
unrelated
snowboard
action
titles
for
Fall
2011.
Videograss,
the
makers
of
Bon
Voyage
(2010)
and
Videograss
(2009)
announced
today
the
acquisition
of
the
crew
that
brought
you
In
Color
(2010),
Get
Real
(2009),
and
These
Days
(2008).
Videograss
founders
Mikey
Leblanc,
Darrell
Mathes,
Nima
Jalali,
Mike
Hakker,
and
Lance
Hakker
have
brought
in
the
directors
of
both
projects,
Justin
Meyer
and
Joe
Carlino,
as
co-owners
of
Videograss.
For
the
2011
season
Videograss
will
be
launching
two
major
titles
with
two
separate
crews.
Each
video
maintaining
the
look
and
feel
that
you’ve
come
to
expect
from
both
Justin
Meyer
and
Joe
Carlino.
Along
with
Joe
come
Gary
Milton
and
Hayden
Rensch,
both
formerly
of
Transworld
Snowboarding.
Videograss
is
also
proud
to
announce
the
addition
of
Eddie
Grams
formerly
of
Variety
Pack
and
Riley
Erickson
formerly
of
House
of
1817
to
fill
out
the
roster
of
accomplished
filmers.
“Adding
the
entire
crew
that
delivered
my
favorite
video
of
2010,
In
Color
which
was
made
by
Joe
Carlino,
Gary
Milton,
and
Hayden
Rensch,
is
a
huge
step
for
Videograss.
We
feel
Videograss
makes
one
of
the
top
5
snowboarding
videos
in
the
world
yearly,
but
adding
this
new
title
to
our
business
really
brings
in
a
huge
element
to
Videograss.
We
have
now
added
a
big
mountain
and
backcountry
element
to
our
video
offering.
More
importantly
we
have
added
a
production
crew
that
is
deep
in
experience,
with
all
the
filmers
being
highly
motivated
and
talented
individuals
that
previously
owned
and
or
started
their
own
video
in
past
seasons.
We
feel
as
a
company
we
can
now
deliver
2
of
the
top
5
videos
for
Winter
2011.”

Mikey
LeBlanc.
“Ever
since
our
first
Bear
videos,
Joe
and
I
knew
we
would
work
together
again
sooner
or
later.
Now
is
the
time,
and
I
couldn’t
be
more
excited.
He
gets
to
keep
doing
his
thing,
and
myself
as
well.
We
got
the
best
snowboarders
in
the
game,
and
we
get
to
bring
in
our
favorite
filmers
to
match.
I
can’t
wait
to
see
what
Joe
and
crew
put
together
this
year!”
–
Justin
Meyer
“I
have
been
a
fan
of
Videograss
and
those
guys
since
day
one,
they
are
my
homeys.
I’m
hyped
to
be
a
part
of
what
they
are
doing
for
snowboarding.
I
hope
this
whole
change
can
bring
the
entire
snowboard
community
together
as
a
whole!”
