MAJOR NEWS ‼️
The long awaited documentary we've been working on for the last year and a half is almost complete!!
Looking forward to seeing what the new year brings with it's upcoming release, hopefully at a film festival in the next couple months. Can't wait! 🤩

🎥For now, here's more on what to expect in the film :

My Wild Life is a vivid portrait of Suzi Eszterhas, a courageous wildlife photographer who has faced life-threatening challenges to capture her intimate images of newborn animals and family life in the wild.

Best known for her rare ability to earn the trust of her subjects, Suzi has taken groundbreaking photos that are emotionally impactful and deeply revealing portraits of wildlife.

Committed to empowering young women to enter the male-dominated field of wildlife photography, she uses her images to spark curiosity and empathy, hoping to rekindle people's appreciation for wildlife and nature. This is a story of courage, love, and the quiet power of photography to reconnect us to our threatened natural world.

Step into the lab in this video we produced, where you'll meet Rob'yn Johnston as she walks us through the process!

Broken bottles, shoe leather, a door handle...

The clues they give for our past not only tell us what kinds of clothes people wore, but how they lived, what they ate, and even how they brushed their teeth.

After 27 years of service and commitment to Palomar TV, we say goodbye to our amazing engineer Mike Janak as he retires today.

He might be a man of few words but his head was always full of critical knowledge, ready to solve just about any problem you threw his way. His crucial role at our TV station through the years cannot be overstated. He provided technical guidance on many of our documentary excursions (some of which involved battling long days and harsh weather conditions), saved many shoots from audio or visual issues, kept our servers and edit bays running smoothly (a daily task in and of itself), supported the classrooms using our studio for their live productions, and generally speaking, was always the go-to man behind the scenes to help prevent and/or solve any technical problem, big or small.

He will be greatly missed, but we do realize it’s time for Mike to enjoy the next chapter of his life. Thank you Mike, for being an integral part of the studio all these years!

We wish you the very best in your retirement!

Amazing review from Film Threat on our film Almost Home!

Wow check out this awesome review just in from Independent Film Guide Film Threat!!

Here's a snippet:

"Directed by Bill Wisneski, Almost Home: Life After Incarceration explores the uphill battle formerly incarcerated individuals face as they reenter society with limited support and overwhelming odds. The film powerfully illustrates how giving hope and structure to people statistically expected to fail can break cycles of trauma and open doors to transformation....The documentary’s narrative is great as it introduces the participants of the program and documentary and just lets the camera roll.
Almost Home: Life After Incarceration doesn’t waste time with theories—it shows a program that actually works."
