Cosmic Pictures-Supported Film Butterfly in a Blizzard Earns Two Sports Emmy Nominations
We are beyond proud to share that Butterfly in a Blizzard has received two Sports Emmy nominations: Outstanding Sports Documentary: Long Form and Outstanding Sports Editing: Long Form.
This film is something special. Butterfly in a Blizzard follows the deeply personal journey of professional snowboarder Kimmy Fasani — tracing her metamorphosis from globe-trotting winter sports icon to mother, while navigating identity shifts, childhood trauma, a breast cancer diagnosis, and the profound transformation of matrescence. Captured over five years with raw, intimate access, it's a film that goes far beyond sport.
Our team, led by Dan Olsen, had the privilege of handling color, online, mastering, and DCP for the film. Getting to contribute to a story this powerful, and see it told with such honesty and care, is exactly the kind of work we show up to do.
A huge congratulations and thank you to Kimmy Fasani, Big Lift Media, and Flagship Independent for bringing us into this project. It was an honor to be trusted with the finishing of a film that has already meant so much to so many people. These nominations are a testament to every person who poured themselves into this story.
