A brand campaign dedicated to getting up and outside no matter the weather. This production took place in the Santa Cruz, CA area and included various scenes such as foraging for mushrooms, trail running, surf, and lifestyle shots around town. In order to show varied weather conditions, the shoot utilized different times of day, simulated rain when needed, and took advantage of elevation differences in the areaās topography.
FIELD NOTES
December 14, 2025 ā I think Iām in love with this production team! We had some top-notch people behind this one that made the production professional, efficient, and fun. When you get that potent combination of great people who have great skills, it really comes together. It was also nice to be working in Santa Cruz again. This town has such a vibe and I really enjoy it. Hopefully will be back soon! -IW
