The Filmmaker’s Retreat: Storytelling in the Wild (Alberta Edition)
Co-led by Kevin Kossowan & Preston Kanak // September 9th-12th, 2025
In this hands-on retreat, you’ll step beyond the script and into the forest. Together, we’ll explore what it means to tell grounded, human stories—with fewer tools, deeper presence, and a clearer connection to the land. From interview techniques to story structure, you’ll learn how to adapt your process to match the pace and rhythm of real life—and walk away with sharper documentary skills and a renewed creative pulse.
