After taking a course at The Gulf Islands Film and Television School in 2003, I plunged into the craft of documentary filmmaking during our epic journey following the Porcupine Caribou Herd. Most of what I’ve learned since those initial days is from direct experience, and, according to the various producers I’ve worked with, a natural affinity for working in film.
My specialty is working as a one-person crew in difficult (and hard-to-reach) locations in the outdoors. I have the skills to ski, hike and paddle into remote settings, capture the required footage and sound, and return to my edit suite where I craft the raw materials into a compelling story.
Awards:
- Gemini, Best Nature Documentary (2005)
- Best Environmental and Conservation Film (2005)- Japan International Wildlife Film Festival
- Grand Prize and Peoples Choice- Banff Mountain Film Festival (2009)
I can offer:
- Extensive mountain and river skills and experience shooting in all kinds of extreme conditions.
- Post production in-house.
- Keen eye for story.
- Higher than normal tolerance to bugs!
