--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------When Vincent asked me to do some shot for his friend, Valery Blin ,who is starting a new fanzine in france. I was stoked, and accepted right away.
In this times of all digital, its important to keep the old fashion paper alive. With all this magazines who are dying one after one. Its scary to think
that people don’t buy magazine anymore, and prefer spending zillion of times behind a screen.
Long live to Rampage the new french Fanzine!

i guess it’s getting harder when you are Gay, Gabe Laduke helped so much the skateboarding scene in Montreal, without him so much kids would probably give up.
Thanks so much Gabe to exist and be one of us!
here is an interview of him i did for the new issue of Kingshit Magazine.

I’m always on the hunt of new talents on 4 wheels, and let me tell you, its not always easy to figure out who is gonna have a chance to do something in the skateboard industry.
It’s not only about the skills, but about the attitude too, Felix Patry is that kind of kid, always good to have in your skate missions, and always the good kid to helping out.
Congrats Felix, you deserve it well that parution in the new Concrete mag! and Thanks Oliviero for the text !

Back in july, i’ve been commissioned to do still photography and a making of (coming later), for a new project for Koma Films‘ called “les Berges”.
When Adam Kosh asked me if i’d like to take part of it, it was a no brainer, his projects are always fun and creative. This web serie, co-produced by “les fonds TV5” was a big piece of cake.
The story is about 4 youngsters who are trapped on an island. For Adam, the biggest challenge was to film this project on a real island !
So there it was , with a small crew, we went 5 days on “l’ile aux basques” in the north of Quebec, with no electricity and no water. And yeah, we had to bring generators and big jugs of water all by ourselves !
It was more or less a camping life on this island… which totally looks like heaven while the sun was shinning, and a complete no man’s land while raining and wind blowing.
A lot of stories took place during these short 5 days, it was a big adventure, it will stay in our memory forever, for sure
Thanks a lot to the great crew !
you can watch right now the complete web-serie on TV5, just click here!
