The Wilds of
San Diego
A high definition film series promoting
the natural diversity of San Diego County
I continue to work on the Wilds of San Diego using the Canon 7D to capture spectacular High Definition images of the county's natural diversity. I've edited a preview piece together with the footage I have so far. This preview is being shown at various venus around the county including The Reuben H Fleet Science Center. On July 27th it will be displayed at the “Nature Education Fair” at Mission Trail Regional Park.

MORE WILD WEB
FILM SERIES IN PRODUCTION
This month I begin production on two new multi episode web projects.
One series is for the Torrey
Pines Association. It will be based on the various trails
you can hike in Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve. The other
series is for the City of San Diego - Open Space Division. It
will explore the many parks, reserves and projects the city has
to offer.

AMBIENT SOUNDTRACKS
Gary Johnson
& Bill Olien of Resonant Drift have created new ambient soundtracks
for the Yosemite and Sequoia Wilderness Theater pieces. We are

a live performance in the future.

New Website Design
I redesigned this website with a cleaner design that focuses
on Wilderness Theater and on-line nature films.
There are a number of films now viewable on-line, from short
web-films to 30 min. documentaries. More will be added over time.
IN PRODUCTION
Web
Films
I recently completed two web films, one for the San Diego
River Park Foundation on volunteerism and another for
Friends of Rose Canyon about children harvesting and spreading
native plant seeds. Three more are in production. Web Films
are a great low cost way to reach the masses using social media
sites like Vimeo and YouTube.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Wild
Habitats of San Diego
With the rains we're having this season we can look forward to
a spectacular spring. Many plants are already beginning to bloom.
This would be a perfect year for filming the Wild
Habitats of San Diego series. This is a multi organization
media campaign to increase awareness of San Diego's spectacular
natural diversity through a high definition film series presented
in public spaces. This project could easily be expanded statewide.
