Art Chantry Artist Series Video: Ride Snowboards

Society Co. recently had the opportunity to direct and produce a graphic artist series video for Northwest poster guru, Art Chantry.  We visited him at his Tacoma based studio and stopped by Ride's product prototype facility to find out what these guys are up too. And if you're wondering, the track in the background is by one of the great bands on the Bad Ideas Soundtrack, Dead Ghosts.
