Himself - Cinematography and Direction:
You've probably heard that the Inuit have seventeen words for snow and ice, but in truth it is much closer to one hundred and seventy. Uguruguzak: grease ice, the earliest stage of freezing causes wind ripples to disappear from patches of the water surface. Maullik: slush ice or ice rind, heavy development of grease ice almost to the point of nilas. Pogazak: slush or mush ice formed by grinding along the edges of ice pans, floes or cracks. Mogozak: solidly frozen ice sometimes refered to as file ice due to the formations caused by the ice filing itself. Migalik: pancake ice, circular pieces of young ice with raised rims, the shape and appearance result from rotation and collision with other cakes. Salogok: nilas or black young ice, a thin flexible sheet of newly formed ice, which will not support a man, is weak enough for a seal to break through and gives way with one firm thrust of the oonak. Eyechektakok: a crack that is pulsating or opening and closing.
