Introducing Real Montana Finalist Elgin Smith

Read Elgin Smith talk about his film "Montana Places: Rattlensake Valley" over at the Audience Awards.

What about Montana inspired you to create your short? I grew up in Western Montana, and what I love about it is that only minutes away from your front door you can literally be out in dense forest. My thought was to showcase one slice of that experience, and the Rattlesnake Valley really exemplifies what it feels like to be out in the forests of Western Montana. [ 648 more words. ]

Montana Places: Rattlesnake Valley

At BACKTRACK films, we always like to try to give back through our filmmaking, and the Audience Awards gives us an opportunity to do that in a literal sense. As a way to spread the love, we are pledging to donate a big chunk - at least 30% - of any winnings we might receive from this final round of voting to an organization called One World Running. This group donates running shoes to people in need across the world. I hope you can help me support this group by VOTING DAILY for Montana Places: Rattlesnake Valley in this final round of voting. Thank you!

A place is defined by how you experience it. For Otis the terrier, the Rattlesnake Valley in Missoula is one big playground where he can engage in his favorite activity - trail running.

What can we say... It's all in a days work. Not too shabby!
BACKTRACK films was on the Bitterroot River for two days with our newest clients Cortland Line and PartnersCreative. Jon at Blackfoot River Outfitters guided us to the best spots and we all had an awesome time catching "Shamoos" and enjoying the best that the Bitterroot has to offer. No doubt about it. Fish on!

While on the river shooting this is the last thing you want to see... But no worries... we checked it out and it was just inflated waders! Yikes! Gave the crew a scare! This is not your normal behind the scenes shot... thankfully.
