If you’ve ever had the chance to meet Dan Cook, you probably know he’s a great guy with a very funny personality. Besides the obvious English banter, he always seems to get himself into very funny situations. I’ve know Dan for a few years now and I’ve always looked up to his photos. He’s one of the few BMX photographers that tries his best to approach BMX with a different feel. “Nothing thrills me more then going out, thinking about a photo angle, setting up many flashes and catching it at the right time” he says. Click below for a few photos Dan has taken and some Q&A. If you want see more of his work take a look at his flickr.

If you are the filmer for your crew, you tend to tag along on the most adventures and excursions. If someone is doing something notable, chances are that you will be there. So with the increase in duties often comes the increase of wild stories. That could be police encounters, being and filming in sketchy areas, or being the first to witness bangers, wrecks crashes, and more. We thought we would ask a number of noteworthy filmers across Canada of some of their most memorable experiences while out and behind the lens.

Embassy’s own Jeremy Deme starts this feature off with his tale of the Kamloops disaster. Click below to read his story and check back soon for part two.

If you’ve been to Winnipeg, you know it’s one of the best cities to be in, all around. Besides the weather being way too hot in the summer, and the winters making you want to kill yourself, the city is packed full of spots, skateparks, bars, girls, and all around fun. A Winnipeg local, Carl Prettyman, always carries around his ‘Bantercam’ (a flipcam) and films us out and about. This video gives you an idea of the Winnipeg scene. If you ever have the chance to get to Winnipeg, take it. If you need some more convincing, make sure you check out Carl’s Vimeo for the rest of the Bantercam series.
