For we Humans the challenge of the future is to learn how to co-operate afresh. Here in the Blue Mountains of Oz we decided to put this to the test by making a film on our own, amongst our close friends, without any commercial involvement. The result is ‘Bluetopia’. We hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed creating it. We climb, trail run, high line, canyon and BASE jump on a frequent basis but this time we took care to film it too in the places we love and call home. We feel an authentic story shared in the spirit of genuine community has the power to persuade people to reconsider their lives and make choices aligned with their deeper values and true passions. What do you love to do? It’s bound to be your real gift to the world.
The two directors, Simon Blair and Pete Wyllie are devoted adventurers and professionals. Simon is an IT lawyer and Pete is a medical doctor. They decided to apply themselves to professional-level film-making for a change upon deciding there were important messages that needed to be shared about global warming and the truly alarming rate of species extinction. They had a lot to learn in 2014 but discovered it’s amazing what you can accomplish with the latest technology if you have the time to invest in learning the relevant skills. BLUETOPIA was the result and released online in DEC 2014.
