I am content with what I was able to accomplish in 2018, but I expect more out of myself this year.
After taking a year away from academics to work and travel abroad, I transferred to Seattle University and completed an individualized business degree focusing on international business management and marketing. I bought my second camera (after the first one was stolen), grew as a photographer and filmmaker, founded Kyle Huber Creative Studio and participated in the Banff Adventure Filmmakers Workshop. I also gained camera operator experience on commercial production sets and during live broadcasts of Seattle U athletic events.
In May, I joined Schendel Films to develop a feature-length documentary about an artist, conservationist, and adventurer, Tony Foster (TEASER). As Co Producer, I am responsible for communications and outreach. Our primary partner, The Foster Art and Wilderness Foundation has been amazing in supporting development of the film. Writing grants, communicating with potential partners, sponsors and donors and planning production, I’ve seen first hand how much effort goes into bringing a story to life on screen. I’m glad to announce production begins this June with a five-day rafting trip down the Green River in Utah. We are also thrilled to have fiscal sponsorship from the Redford Center- the generous extension of Redford’s 501(c)(3) designation allows for donations to the project to be considered tax-deductible: Redford Center Landing Page here: Redford Center Landing Page
A few other notes:
Going forward, I will be pursuing a career in film direction and production. I’m drawn to the power of film as a medium for change. In addition to Tony Foster, Journeys, I am currently directing and producing two short films. The first, 52 Weeks a Year, follows two mountain-loving ski bums through the challenges of managing work and play. The second short, Mama River, shadows 2x cancer survivor and world-record holding extreme long distance swimmer Dean Hall as he prepares to become the first person to swim the River Tay in Scotland.
To pay the bills and hopefully move out of my parents basement sometime soon, I am continuing to build Kyle Huber Creative Studio, offering photography and video solutions for businesses and organizations in the Pacific Northwest. Next time you hear of someone looking for a reliable, efficient and experienced videographer or photographer, drop me a line!
