A personal project I worked on with Dylan Dowd. Shot entirely on 16mm film with a Bolex. This was given a Vimeo Staff pick and has over 55k views online.

“Take a tour of Washington State’s worn-in, woebegone backroads and byways in “Evergreen Blues,” a new 16mm edit by Seattle area videographer Ben Ericson. He follows local concrete shredder Dylan Dowd around to the many concrete parks peppered across Washington, documenting the forlorn and often haunting scenery along the way. I might be biased, because I’m from the Northwest, but there’s something about this place—especially the experience of being a skateboarder in this place—that is difficult to put into words. Ben captures it masterfully on film.” - www.SkateIsm.com
