Filming 'WOLAKOTA' with a full spectrum modified RED Dragon 6K

2/27/2019 ISO 1200 Magazine 0 Comments


The birth of this project goes all the way back to 2012, when fellow filmmaker and dear friend Silas Hagerty (who shot and directed the feature documentary, ‘Dakota 38’) introduced me to medicine man Jim Miller and his wonderful family on Pine Ridge Reservation. In 2014, I had the chance to go back out to Pine Ridge and begin this collaboration with Ike ‘Wanbli Omani’ Miller. The exact message of our project was still very loose at that point - all we set out to do was capture the beauty of the reservation and it’s indigenous inhabitants.
