Right now leaders from around the world are meeting at #cop26 As we watch the coastal glaciers of British Columbia rapidly recede, record the highest temperatures ever seen in Canada and witness our forests turn into infernos, action on climate change can’t happen soon enough.
It was an honour to collaborate with @originalsyoutube and @silverback_films this August on content for COP 26. Spending a week on the glaciers with @jtholmesjr hit home just how real climate change is.
Never thought speedriding would have a connection to Kermit The Frog and Obama, but everyone has a story connected to #climatechange
Link in bio to Dear Earth. 100 minutes of content aimed at our leaders at COP 26. Part of Unf**k It. A month of ideas, action and shows produced by You Tube. They say “The planet is totally f**ked.” You say, “Then let’s unf**k it.”
When a resort closes its doors for good, it isn't long before the elements take hold. Most'ghost resorts' older than a few years have deteriorated, irreparably. Much of the originalinfrastructure at Fortress Mountain is gone.
As such, the stories and memories created there, are what remains. Every individual who spent time at Fortress has a unique story to tell.Learning to ski, meeting a life partner, or participating in the legendary staff parties are just afew of the fleeting memories that risk being forgotten forever.
The Fortress Ghosts premieres at @banffmountainfestival on November 6th. Huge thanks to @blackcrows_skis and @fortressmountainresort for trusting us with this story.

This is Fairy Creek. Territory of the Pacheedaht and the last unlogged watershed on southern Vancouver Island outside of parks. With less that 3% of British Columbia’s ancient rainforests remaining, people have passionately defended this ecosystem for the past 9 months. The stakes seem obvious.

Here comes season two of Originate.
Here comes season 2 of #originate. Such a pleasure to work alongside @myshellparker to craft these stories. One theme from last season remained ever present. Mother Nature always seems to find a way to make sure that the best laid plans for winter don't stick. But in many ways that has been the beauty of this series. A constant conversation, interesting characters and great team always pushing through the unexpected to find something better. Big thanks to all the athletes and contributors along the way.
Behind the lens, so many people helped make this possible. @redbull @arcteryx @nomadikmotion @anthonymarkvitale @wrkshrt @dogprty @blattphoto @tylerjhamlet @stellar_media @davidtomiakcolour @ridgelinesound
Series launches Monday November 11th on @redbull.tv_
Crazy what hits the cutting room floor sometimes. #beautifulbc @shotovercamera @reddigitalcinema @taloncopters
Alaska Wing Men Shoot in Nome
This is a prime example of extreme filmmaking. Bryan Smith working as a DP for Nat Geo's Alaska Wing Men series. 30 below and a little windy.
