Artist and filmmaker, Chris Miyashiro, talks about his process, from dreams to road trips, and his style as a filmmaker.  His first movie, In Dancing Days of Dawn, premiered with us in June of 2019.  We love Chris’s work and will be showing Whistle of Wilderness on August 28th at Atlantic Center for the Arts.  Enjoy the chat, and come meet him at the screening. Check out his stories here.

Chris Burkard is at the top of his profession.  With some average equipment and a lot of hours and hard work, he developed a natural talent for communicating the beauty of this place with us.  The work he’s presented within the surf genre comes from extreme terrain and uncrowded line-ups, and his new projects seem to find a collaborative, refined narrative reflecting the maturity of an older, smarter, more efficient artist.  We’re honored to have him share some stories of his recent collaboration with Ben Weiland and Roark, Arc of Aleutia.

Balaram Stack talked to us about his new project with Ben Gulliver, Hail Mary, due to be released in the fall of 2021.  He shared a gem about taking a beat down in the Caribbean, and Ben thought Bal had disappeared in the Pacific Northwest ocean.  Enjoy the gab.

Albee Layer and Dan Norkunas have been making movies and web episodes together since 2010, and they may have been pulled apart by time and circumstance, but their work continues through the pandemic.  On Maui, Albee continues to generate content and has found himself in the editing bay for long stretches of the day, and in Bend, OR, Dan has gone back to the mountains for some much needed regenerative diversity in setting.  The results are glorious.  Enjoy this chat about the Eddie, Rainbows in the Rearview, and more.

From the moment we locked eyes on Ben Gulliver’s work, we fell deeply in love.  He’s not so bad himself, but when offered the opportunity to interview him and beat his ass in golf down in Jupiter, FL, we jumped all over it.  The update and stories are funny and often a little scary when it comes to the Pacific Northwest or Scottish Isles.  Please enjoy.

What happens after is rarely more exciting than what happens before.  Like Tom Robbins wrote, “…The best part of an affair is going up the stairs,” but Keith Malloy’s affair with surfing didn’t end with hitting lips for points.  He has gracefully moved into the director’s chair for a whirlwind of feature documentary projects including Fishpeople, The Midnight Hour, and his award-winning 2011 bodysurfing documentary Come Hell or High Water, available on YouTube.  Along with a host of other short documentaries, new forthcoming work is in the hopper.  Ever wondered what it’s like to go from professional surfing, well, to anything…  Here’s one fantastic story.

Behind every surf camp, there’s a person with enough spitfire grit to fuel a nuclear submarine underwater for weeks.  He’s like Scott Glenn in Hunt for Red October.  Or Clooney in Oceans.  Scott Balogh runs at flank speed, and the stoke is contagious.  Parked in Bocas del Toro, Panama, he has created a balinese jungle experience, along with a healthy dose of surf to satisfy all levels of skill.  Red Frog Bungalows has been for a while now the first choice for wave consumption in the western Caribbean.  Here’s Scott’s story along with some wonderful encounters along the way.
