For many, fire can be scary – but fire breathes life into a landscape dependent on it. Led by the Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation, the Loess Hills Fire Partners needed a promotional video to showcase the importance of controlled burns to conservationists and landowners alike, as well as visual documentation of how beneficial the annual Cooperative Burn Week training is for continued support and funding.
Hiking through the Loess Hills for this exciting shoot called for extreme caution and care for regulations in regards to safety measures while producing.
