Episode #213: Roo Smith / Adventure Filmmaker

Adventure and documentary filmmaker Roo Smith joins the podcast to talk about his new series "The Goat Surf Club" shot with Outside Magazine, and how a kid growing up in Orcas Island with dreams of one day becoming a diplomat would end up taking a political science degree and turning it into a creative career as a filmmaker right out of college, working on everything from Netflix shows to his own personal projects.  During our conversation Roo and I talk about how he used his free time in college to create a visual portfolio, what young shooters can learn from veterans and vice versa, how he went about pitching a personal project to Outside Magazine, the positive power of telling uplifting stories, his goals of finding balance between his work life and personal life, how he's trying to set himself up for longevity, why he chose Boulder, CO as his new home, and the advice he gives to others chasing their own creative dreams.   To Learn More About Roo Smith Visit: https://roosmith.com And Follow Him On Instagram At: https://www.instagram.com/roosmith6/ To Watch The Goat Surf Club Visit: https://www.outsideonline.com/video/goat-surf-club-ireland-1/ To Learn More About Our Sponsors Visit: https://www.mpb.com To Learn More About Visual Revolutionary Visit: https://www.visualrevolutionary.com And Follow On Instagram At: https://www.instagram.com/visualrevolutionary/
