The Bears in the Mine

I recently finished editing a video I filmed back in 2022 near Burnt Creek, outside Schefferville, Québec.

It’s a quiet piece. Two bears move through the landscape, notice the drone, and continue on. Nothing dramatic happens, and that’s the point. It’s the kind of footage I return to when I want to slow things down and just watch for a moment.

You can watch the full video here:

Like a lot of personal work, this footage sat unfinished for a long time while other projects took priority. Lately, I’ve been making a point to revisit that backlog and close creative loops; not to optimize or chase attention, but to give these pieces the time they deserve.

For those who are curious about the context behind this video and how I’m changing the way I share my work more broadly, I recorded a short explainer video on Patreon. That’s where I talk a bit more about the thinking behind this approach.
