National Geographic Live
Live vicariously through this downhill-skiing, sea-and-white-water-kayaking, aeroplane-flying, adventure-film-making badass.
Overview
Bryan Smith is a self-taught American adventure filmmaker. About ten years ago he took his first camera, a camcorder from Walmart, along on a kayaking trip with friends. Since then he’s worked around the world for National Geographic, made 49 Megawatts (an award-winning conservation film) and started his own film production company. Now this downhill-skiing, sea-and-white-water-kayaking, aeroplane-flying, adventure-film-making badass is hitting the stage to tell you his secrets.
On Saturday, October 4, Smith will be sharing stories of his adventures, and his filmmaking, including his kayaking explorations in India, Peru and Russia. He might even tell you a little about his human flight experience. Encounters with culture, nature and danger are everyday occurrences for Smith, although he refuses to adopt the term ‘thrill-seeker’. Instead he embraces his fear, considering nerves as his greatest asset, and his protecter. Fear, he says, keeps you focussed and safety-conscious.
This is your chance to live vicariously through his thrill-seeking-but-not adventures. Grab your tickets here.
