See below the final cut of Outdoorgames by Médéo. Directed by Guillaume Broust this film was made during a previous years event very cool all but a little cheesy in places. I love shooting in snow and the moutains I must say this sort of thing would be a dream job for me, I will have to keep dreaming for now.
