Science in the Wild
For an ongoing campaign filmed over two summers with R&R Partners, Director Brendan Young and a nimble crew traversed Colorado, climbing mountains, floating rivers, and crossing prairies, to document the diverse, impactful work of real CPW (Colorado Parks & Wildlife) biologists. The director’s cut above weaves together stories from both shoots through a conversational script, highlighting the everyday dedication of CPW scientists in the wild.

“Long drives on dusty roads, wading through cold mountain streams, scribbles in field notebooks... these are the human moments behind the science that bring us into these biologists' worlds.”— Director, Brendan Young
"The phrase 'doc-style approach' gets tossed around a lot, but there's really no other way to describe how we collaborated with the CWC team to accurately capture their work," says Futuristic EP Christian Silberbauer.
"Brendan and the production team conducted dozens of interviews with the biologists and specialists ahead of the shoot and road-tripped across Colorado to scout locations and understand the landscape."
