Skate Video Essentials: The Legacy of Mike Ternasky

Saturday, Sep 7, 2024 at 5:30 pm

Location: Redstone Theater

Screening and discussion with special guests, followed by reception

To mark the opening of the exhibition Recording the Ride: The Rise of Street-Style Skate Videos, this program focuses on the seminal work of the late Mike Ternasky, whose videos for the brands H-Street and Plan B were foundational to the development of the genre, and whose influence is still felt today. This event will feature an all-new digital re-master of Plan B’s 1993 release Virtual Reality, along with rarely seen archival footage. Michaela Ternasky-Holland, Ternasky’s daughter, will moderate a discussion with skateboard legends Matt Hensley and Rick Howard and filmmaker Jacob Rosenberg, Ternasky’s protege and collaborator.
