EP 519 | Would I Still Film If Nobody Watched? | Q&A
About this episode
Arron Bleise discusses his experiences filming hunts and the impact of content creation on the hunting industry.
After 14 years behind a camera filming hunts, I finally sat down and answered the questions people have been asking me for years. This episode goes way deeper than camera gear and self-filming setups. We get into how filming hunts has changed the way I hunt, whether social media and modern hunting content have helped or hurt the industry, and if I’d still film today if nobody ever saw the final product. I also talk about the mental shift of going from filming projects like Dropped into whitetail season, balancing the pressure of capturing content while still staying present in the hunt, and how different productions like Dropped, Rival Wild, and GRIT all require completely different mindsets behind the camera. We also dive into some things people rarely talk about publicly: Ethical dilemmas while filming hunters Pressure to cross lines for content Nightmare filming situations Whether I edit for myself or the audience The most rewarding footage I’ve ever captured What’s still on my filming bucket list after all these years There are stories, opinions, and behind-the-scenes moments in this episode that I’ve never shared before. If you’ve ever wondered what really goes into filming…
