Extinction Rebellion, San Francisco Bay Area

Extinction Rebellion is a global environmental movement. It's Bay Area chapter needed to spread their message further to attract more volunteers so I conceived of a monthly series on Instagram that consists of action updates as well as local and global climate news to engage and inform the community.

Each episode is designed to take the viewer on a ‘hike’ through nature. Shots are stable and wide to frame the human subject (me) and the environment together, provoking the audience to subconsciously ponder humanity’s relationship to the natural world. The soundscape seldom includes music, consisting mostly of natural sounds like birdsong and running water both to contrast with overstimulating din of social media and also to trigger the viewer’s own memories of time spent in nature.
