Episode 005: Orlando Von Eisendel - How It Feels To Win An Oscar

Full episode info and show notes: www.wearelookingsideways.com For the fifth episode of the Looking Sideways podcast I spoke to Oscar-winning documentary maker and snowboarder Orlando von Eisendel, a week after he’d picked up the award for Best Short Documentary for his film The White Helmets at the ceremony in LA. We talked about how it feels to win an Oscar, how Orlando made the evolution from snowboard film-maker to Academy Award winner, how action sports are the ideal proving ground for creatives, and much, much more. He also dished up come great advice for young creatives, and some brilliant tales from the making of The White Helmets, Virunga and Skateistan. As you may suspect if you’ve seen any of his films, Orlando was generous with his time, and great company. For anybody interested in hearing how a world-renowned artist got his start through snowboarding, it’s a must-listen. Thanks to Scott Nixon (www.scottnixon.co.uk) for post-production help and Matt Ward (linguistine.com) for the theme tune.
