Behind the Camera with DAVID BOWEN: Surfing, Hawaii, Storytelling, and Two Emmys Later
In this episode of The Fixate & Binge Podcast, I welcome one of my best pals from college and (now) an award-winning director, David Bowen, a surfer turned Emmy-winning filmmaker -- for a deep dive into his career capturing the raw beauty of surfing and ocean culture from a life well-lived.
David shares stories from the shores of the North Shore of Hawaii to remote parts of the world, from the Middle East and beyond. As a freelance filmmaker specializing in capturing some of the most beloved live sports in Hawaii and the South Pacific, David talks story about his work for ESPN and the World Surf League (WSL), filming competitions with the world's greatest athletes.
David also shares the surreal experience of being awarded Emmy's for his work for the Eddie Aikau Invitational and the Moloka'i Hoe World Championship while working with Salt N Air Studios together with KHON TV and Rogue TV.
From our college day in Hawaii to navigating the Big Waves of life and even bigger storytelling challenges, we reminisce, reflect and celebrate our enduring friendship, and living our dreams.
