The 68' Columbia III outshines them all! Stately. Graceful. Quiet. Steadfast. Beautiful. After fifty years of being an integral participant in BC's coastal history it travels to the Great Bear Rainforest, home of the Spirit Bear. As rare as the white bears are, there has been superb viewing opportunities with every tour.
The tour highlights grizzly bear viewing, visiting the stunning Big House in the remote First Nations community of Klemtu, and soaking in a secluded hot springs. But best of all you will have time to search for the elusive Spirit Bear on Gribble Island, accompanied by our Gitga’at First Nations guides.
In this workshop, you ’ll learn basic shooting and editing techniques that will enhance your ability to tell a story on videotape. You ’ll document fishing bears and wolves, native people’s villages, and beach walks on the rugged outer coast.
Each evening you ’ll download your footage into a computer editing program and at the end of the week take home a group video that sums up our adventures. Additionally, Pat & Baiba will give nightly screenings of some of the award- winning films they have shot or produced.
Last autumn, assisted by Farlyn Campbell of the Columbia III family, Pat spent several weeks in the Great Bear Rainforest area working alongside wildlife film specialists Jeff and Sue Turner. The Turners are producing a documentary about the life cycle of the salmon for the BBC Planet Earth Series, and Pat shot a "making of" film that will accompany theirs, for broadcast in 2008.
