If you would have told me up to a week ago, that I would ever travel, anywhere, anytime, in my lifetime with my own videographer, I would have told you, you were nuts! I mean, that stuff just doesn’t happen in the real world. There isn’t just someone with immense talent, enormous passion and plane old fun who follows one around with a video camera aiding in recording and telling the story. Well this past week in Africa I had just that and I am forever grateful that my long time friend and producer, Adam was long to tell the story of our safari and the African wild heritage!<\/p>\n

A scheme hatched eight months ago, Adam was able to come because of the generosity of Images in Africa Safaris<\/a> and the creative genius, Perry at KelbyOne (the producer of our Warbirds Film<\/a>). Of course, the original concept for Adam going was to create a new class for KelbyOne. But Adam and & I knew before going it would be much more than a class (and as it turned out, an epic journey). While we were incredibly fortunate to make the journey and see Africa in a spectacular way, a class on just wildlife photography or travel photography was never Adam’s or my goal. You see, even Africa and its rich wildlife diversity is in grave danger. For example, all EXIF data is scrubbed from any photo taken of a Rhino as you see below. The explosion of life, the spectacle of species and the scale of life is bigger than a single click. Adam and I wanted to tell that story more than anything else. We realize many will never have the opportunity to go on safari, it was for those that we put in the 21hrs days, six days in a row to bring back footage and the story we know you’ve never seen before! Adam is a dear friend with great passion and we’ve done many great things together. This is our best so far!<\/p>\n

But as you might imagine, screwin around is a HUGE part of our production process. When the camera is on and we need to get the work done, we do just that. But when the camera goes off, and I think it’s part of our team’s creative process, we goof off. So Adam gave himself the self assignment of doing selfies with all the critters. The one he hadn’t gotten all week were with Rhinos. So, literally, the last day, the last drive, the last hour, he got his selfie and his self assignment was complete. While we were on a serious mission with a serious task at hand, fun is still the corner stone we use to create each project. While I’ve told Adam thank you many times in many ways over the years for all he has done to aid me in telling our stories, I wanted to, once again, tell him publicly thanks. What we do is important, it does make a difference. Thank you my friend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
