Ep 13 Creating Strong Role Models using Documentary with award-winning director Nathaniel Jackson
In this episode of FILMESQUE, host, researcher, and filmmaker Sage (https://www.rocketshot.tv/rocketshot-tv/) sits down with director-producer-cinematographer Nathaniel Jackson, the powerhouse behind Jackson Speed Video Productions.
Nathaniel shares what it took to capture the raw, relentless beauty of Lisa Blair’s record-breaking solo sail around Antarctica — a feat of endurance, isolation, and sheer willpower. From shooting at sea in unforgiving conditions to shaping a story that reflects both the danger and poetry of Lisa’s journey, this conversation dives into the ethics, logistics, and emotional weight of independent documentary filmmaking at the edge of the world.
We talk creative resilience, tech survival kits, and why stories like Lisa’s — of courageous, uncompromising women — are more vital than ever.
🎧 Tune in to hear what it really takes to film history in motion — with salt spray in your face and minimal room for retakes.
