How We Make Adventure Films: A Fielder Films Case Study

A conversation on what it takes to build a sustainable career as a creative nomad. Beyond the laptop-on-the-beach fantasy, the panel covers income architecture, layering revenue streams, choosing base cities intentionally, managing clients across time zones, and designing mobility without sacrificing stability or creative depth.

This workshop covers the practical realities of filming in remote and extreme environments: gear, safety, logistics, and the creative problem-solving that turns footage into a film.
