We came to Antigua to work. Story first. Always.

Somewhere between the volcanoes and the cathedral ruins, a bespoke Melrose Boutique guayabera appeared — as you can see, it sent me into a happy dance.

The locals were gracious. The cobblestones, less so. They’re in the frame now, so they can consider themselves hired.

Twelve years of story. Twelve years of the West.
We just updated the FEAT1STFILMS website, and it became something we didn’t quite expect — a reminder of just how much ground we’ve covered together. The traditional artists and apprentices. The musicians, the artisans, the culture-keepers. The landscapes that take your breath away before you even raise the camera.
Every project on this site exists because someone trusted us with something that mattered to them. That responsibility has never been lost on us — and it never will be.
To our partners at the Idaho Commission on the Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, and, upcoming...The Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Heritage — thank you. To every subject, collaborator, and community that opened their doors — thank you.
The stories of the American West are still being lived. We’ll keep showing up to preserve them.
Story First. Always. 🎬

This footage featuring American bullfighter, David Moss, was shot with four mini DV cameras in standard definition in 2000.

in 2024, the footage was digitized, de-interlace and upscaled the HD quality using Topaz Video AI.

Happy to report that the plugin certainly worked to improve the clarity of the image and will be a welcome addition to my editing toolbox going forward. Topaz Labs Community Topaz Labs
