Who's Who With The Mellow Climbing Crew || Climbing Gold Podcast w/Alex Honnold
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2023
- Alex Honnold, Daniel Woods and Giuliano Cameroni discuss the various rad jobs within Mellow Climbing, including how their CEO, Shawn Raboutou, dropped out of business school.
The next generation needs its inspiration. The Mellow crew provides it. Between sends of the world’s hardest boulders, Daniel Woods, Shawn Raboutou, Giuliano Cameroni and Jimmy Webb took climbing media into their own hands, authoring UA-cam ready videos of climbing’s cutting edge with an aesthetic more akin to Thrasher's skate films than National Geographic.

CEO of mellow is probably the funniest job title that exists haha
The least pretentious person of that position
It's perfect for Shawn
Great content! Please tell Shawn that we would love some tees to come back into stock!
Damn good interviewer, maybe because you've been interviewed so much yourself...but your asking all the questions I've had over the last few years after finding Mellow. As an old crusty filmmaker that is trying to dust off and get back into filming the vertical world (inspired by Mellow and a 16 year son that is cranking after burning out on ice hockey, thank god), I'm just starting back at offering my availability for shooting and editing services. I imagine if guys like these don't know you, your not getting on any lists, but still, hard climbers like them must sometimes need a rogue cameraman/cutter to capture their ascents. I'll be in south of France and Italy in the next month, with drone, gopro and Sony A7II.... (made Above the Smogline, Rock Climbing in and around LA) Thanks for making these - love this channel as much as seeing psyched videos!
The tattoo on woods neck controls the crew 😂
i thought matty hong was more involved in mellow
mellow just created something great in climbing, the only negative thing about mellow is that is not realistic for 99% of the climbing population, not many people will manage to climb v15+ to actually be able to produce such quality content, thats the only negative ahaha
That’s the point, I think 99% of climbers know they’re not sending V14
Nah I'm totally gonna do those climbs don't burst my bubble!
The content isn’t even that good of quality. The sends are just hard enough that the quality is less impactful.
@@jlehm I am sorry to say but you are delusional if you think the quality is not good. Their shots, music selection, sync and effects during the whole video is as aesthetic and pleasent as it can be, compare it to WEDGE or ROKDO and these are basic videos, mellow are on a different level of video edition that makes you thrilled through the whole video, but I will not spend more time convicing someone who won't believe me, after all I have a 5 year degree in multimedia and video edition, I don't need to be explaining myself on what I believe 100%.
@@SCOclimbing you have a degree…cool. That doesn’t mean anything. Go watch older climbing videos if you want to see good ones. You can start with The Real Thing, then follow it up with any of the Lowell brothers’ vids.
Daniel and Giuliano couldn’t sound like less useful people. I hope they never have to get real jobs…
do you think they can climb v17 by sleeping all day?
@@therealjayboogie that has nothing to do with being useful and adding value as an employee.
@@jlehm Have you seen a mellow video? Climbing hard is kind off the whole point.
@@Finn.noOffcial have you watched this video? Climbing hard is only part of the equation. Giuliano said he couldn’t handle filming with a real crew because it was too stressful and not just fun. Daniel openly admitted to doing nothing. Go figure why Shawn doesn’t respond to texts, emails, or go on the podcasts. He probably feels like he does everything else, those two can handle casual conversation at least.
@@jlehmdid you listen to the full interview? Both of them later talk about how they source a lot of the videos that go on the channel. and they have huge individual followings that drive traffic to mellow as whole, as well as showing up to do interviews like this. The only thing they said they don’t do is handle merch…
Stopped listening when Alex started shit talking someone not present, yet again. 🙄
I think he just talks like that without meaning anything bad, plus he was making fun of shawn for not graduating because he did the same thing with engineering so he could climb. All jokes I think he seems like a pretty chill dude 🤧
They are all friends, Shawn has gone solo climbing with Alex.
Besides Shawn is super chill, I don't think he would mind that at all.
Thats not shit talking
