Director's Note:
We're currently producing BEARS, an independent documentary celebrating the bear community.
Our team, which includes an Emmy-winning casting producer and two-time Emmy-nominated producer, has produced various shows across HBO, Netflix, Hulu, etc. A UTA agent is championing BEARS in this early phase to help secure full financing. The editor of John Wick 4, Ghostbusters, and Saturday Night edited the 60-min pilot. Les K. Wright, bear historian and scholar, is helping to inform our approach. Various people on our team are donating time and equipment.
On a personal note, BEARS is a love letter. It’s also an encouragement to live joyfully and authentically. The bear community has been a source of many gifts in my life. Shared stories; a sense of belonging; examples of healthy masculinity; genuine support; camaraderie; and feelings of liberation in my body. I've seen the community help friends discover deeper authenticity and tap into pure joy.
In that spirit, I hope BEARS is a window for some, and a door for others. Big bear hugs.
