One of the most interesting and educational documentaries you will see this year is ELEMENTAL: REIMAGINE WILDFIRE, especially for those living in the Western United States and fire-prone areas. Bringing us the foremost experts on wildfire, as well as the most recent science from a firefighting aspect, preventative aspect, and ecological aspect, ELEMENTAL examines the history of wildfires and firefighting in the United States, opening our eyes to the ever-changing approach to combating wildfires in an effort to prevent whole communities like Paradise, California from being eradicated. Delving into everything from how fire is needed for the ecosystem to controlling and preventing fire and punctuated with some stunning cinematography as well as cell phone videos taken by those fleeing the catastrophic wildfires of the past few years, ELEMENTAL is a powerhouse doc.<\/p>\n
Listen as Trip dives into his five-year journey into making this documentary, from his own educational standpoint, as well as from a filmmaking perspective. Passionate about the subject, you\u2019ll hear that in Trip\u2019s voice as we discuss his path to finding experts and electing to take them out into the environment as they walk and talk about their particular areas of expertise, shooting footage before a wildfire and then revisiting the same site after destruction. And you\u2019ll hear Trip talk about the joy of Mother Nature and the rebirth that comes after a fire, much of which he captures on camera over an extended period of with time-lapse photography. Narrated by David Oyelowo, Trip talks about getting David involved and how seeing the film impacted his own life in the remodeling of his home.<\/p>\n
