Here is a good worthwhile interview by Autoblog with Jimmy Chin, the professional climber, photographer, and Oscar-winning filmmaker, who collaborated with Ford to create the three network reveal stories about Bronco which aired on reveal night in July.

It's great seeing that Ford teamed with a legit outdoor enthusiast and adventurer who chooses his creative projects carefully and wanted to work on these Bronco short-films because of what it stands for.

I've personally learned about and followed Jimmy Chin's career and projects since first learning about him in Meru, the documentary about Jimmy's attempt to summit Mount Meru in 2011. He's an inspirational individual and earns bonus points for being humble and down-to-earth despite his newly found celebrity status.






If you haven't seen them, here are the three reveal story videos:










And here's a couple of cool shots and animation of Jimmy Chin with the Bronco.

Get "Masterclass" and watch Jimmy Chin's class. It is awesome!
Worth it just for that class alone.

When you see a climber or adventurer in a documentary, you don't think about the camera guy who has to do the same thing as the "hero", but with 30 lbs of equipment and no one filming him.

Also agree that he is very humble for such a superstar.

So...are those 33's on that 2 door? Looks so dang good! I have such high anxiety which probably wont go away until June 2021. :confused:
Looks like a Sasquatch with 35's to me. Goodyear Wranglers.

So is this the Molded in color top? It doesn't look painted black (Modular).
If its the same 2dr they show in the video with the side glass removed wouldn't that be the modular top? i agree it doesnt look painted or does it :unsure:

You got to watch the class to understand.
Drone's are OK for a couple of seconds in movie, if you are not too nitpicky about quality of image... but they are NOT the same as a professional photographer's "iconic shot".

My apologies if it sounded confusing. The commercial shows the 2d with the top on side windows attached but also shows it with the top removed and no side windows. So in response the gentleman that asked if it was the molded top bc it did look painted I mentioned it should be the modular top bc the side glass can be removed.

Hey I am with you, I was just trying to get a laugh! Some of the most dramatic and fascinating footage I have seen is of the footage (by a second photographer)of the primary photographer filming the climber or whatever and you get a feel for not only the climbing, safety rigs but all the photographic gear as well. no doubt they are the unsung heroes.
