"Blewitt in the Barrel"
Mitch Blewitt is seen here on an epic barrel ride. I really strove to bring his enthusiasm forward by making sure the rich teal-blue water and the orange tones in his skin liven up the frame.

"Maria at the End of the World"
The main challenge in this shot was to pull warmth and light from Maria's face amid the icy surroundings and the low level of light on her face. By pumping up the sunlight, I was able to leak some of that ambient light on to her face while maintaining the feeling that she's in a very cold environment.

To achieve this, the footage was stacked and several effects applied to "thicken' the air and enhance the sunlight.
