If the idea of making a short and amusing video about the preservation of the environment, appeals to you – read on – and perhaps create a video of your own.
Several Laneo members in 5 European countries have started to produce short movies with their sports training buddies and club members. The content and topic have been decided upon by the participants and will focus on eco-sports initiatives. The goal is to “show” Laneo members and visitors worldwide, what exactly it means to “reclaim your playground”. The videos are being filmed with standard digital movie cameras and edited by passionate sports & nature lovers on their computers, enhanced with fun effects, music and titles. 90% of the conversation is in local language but English voice over will be provided to help others understand what is going on. Although the methodology is loose, participants are expected to contribute to each video in some way and share their experience with peers via blogs, photo sharing, bookmarking and other social networking sites.
This is a great way for hobbiest, amateurs and up & coming video directors to showcase their skills across the world, especially to our network of corporate partners who are always looking for fresh talent.
I hope you’re as excited as I am to SHOW the world how it’s done. I’m sure we’ll all be proud to see the finished mini-movies here on the Laneo Blog starting January 2008.
If you’d like to participate, contact me via the “Contact Form” on the Laneo website!

As this year’s festive events near (Christmas, New Year’s, Epiphany…) we decided it was time to add some fun new designs to our store to provide you with an opportunity for you’re your loved ones; one of a kind gifts that not only look good, but do good for the planet.
Laneo is a new and exciting way to get involved in the mission to “Save the Planet” and what better way to make a statement than by proudly wearing a shirt that, especially to the younger generations. Remember, funds from the sale of these items are being used to fuel our growth but more importantly; wearing a Laneo Hoodie or Long Sleeve Shirt might have a more important effect – raising awareness of those close to you.
Here’s a sneak peak at one of the designs you’ll see at the store – hope you like it and the others!
