The Problem

We don\'t all know someone working in the field of our dream jobs. Having someone to learn from and answer questions of budding enthusiasts is important!

Our Plan

We will be heading out to hear wildlife film maker, Tom Fitz, discuss his career as a freelance cinematographer for renowned companies such as BBC and National Geographic and PBS. If you have an interest in filmmaking, documentaries or learning more about wildlife while working in changing and sometimes tough environments, join us! We would love to see you tonight in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida! We will put our inspiration and newfound knowledge to use with our own short films to spread the word about our projects and passions!
