Alpine ski racing has been the most intimate part of my life since I was three. I can not go a day without remembering the power from a turn, using momentum, and continually generating speed. This project's color scheme is inspired by various retro ski posters, incorporating the similar color of bold blues, reds, and yellow.

First, I used a video from my training and selected two turns that can smoothly generate a loop. Then, in Photoshop, I cut the frames to 12 per second and then imported each frame into Procreate to draw due to the software functionality.

Finding the most efficient method to create a seamless animation was an immense learning barrier. I found rotoscoping to be an excellent solution; however, I was disappointed with the drawing capabilities of Photoshop.

Many ski-related images, specifically by Photographer Ron LeMaster, create similar compositions by overlapping images from video.
