Seeing the Forest for the Trees
_____
Redwoods never cease to amaze people.
REDWOODS from Ioda Media on Vimeo.
They are impressive. Humboldt’s majestic redwoods are the tallest and more massive species of trees on the planet. Found nowhere else, they are engulfed by mountains, drowned in oceans and fog, and eaten up by lush rainforests.
Documenting a recent exploratory trip to the redwoods and various places on the coast by Ioda Media, this beautifully shot film highlights what a great job a group of filmmakers, designers and thinkers can do when they combine some fun and work and nature together.
It’s also an amazingly low key film. All that sun, water and nature was just what we needed to remind us of the beauty of Humboldt and it’s special trees during our humdrum day of eking out a living on the North Coast.
About the video, the gang at Ioda simply said:
“We love what we do enough that it’s easy to get lost in our work. The importance of creating things and telling stories that transcend our daily “to-do” lists.
That is why trips like this are so important.
It’s our adventures and hobbies that drive our creativity. We want to share that with our friends.”
Something we should all strive for in our own work and play.
Camp on, and remember to see the forest for its trees.
