Borealis Basecamp, Alaska

 

 

Adriel dreamt big when he started the Borealis Basecamp Eco Lodge that’s nestled in 100 acres of pristine boreal forest in remote Alaska. Nick and Kris were fortunate to spend a week filming and photographing this one-of-a-kind location and the team that makes it a reality. The concept was originally pitched to Timberland PRO as a documentary of a real-life worker doing maintenance under the northern lights in Alaska. After learning about Adriel and his experience starting Borealis Basecamp, Timberland PRO asked us to create a short film alongside still photography assets. The production pushed the limits, with the team pulling all nighters and working in -15 degree temperatures. The production team also included a photo assistant. The final deliverables from the shoot included 42 still photographs, a short documentary video with a run time of 5:30 minutes, and a cut-down video with a run time of 1:00 minutes.
