Firsthand: Mat Rebaud, Part 1
Fuel TV’s Firsthand was the channel’s flagship in-house series, and it featured one professional action sport athlete per episode. The standard crew was one producer/filmer/editor, one additional shooter, and one assistant editor. For this episode on freestyle motocross rider Mat Rebaud, I travelled to his home in Switzerland, then to Southern California, and wrapped in Calgary, Canada.
