Climbing And Ski Mountaineering Photography By Jimmy Chin

Jimmy began filming in 2003 under the mentorship of Rick Ridgeway. His first attempt as a cinematographer resulted in an hour long television special for National Geographic called Deadly Fashion. He later worked with David Breashears, shooting Ed Viesturs climbing to the summit of Mount Everest. Jimmy worked as a cinematographer with Chris Malloy of Woodshed films on the feature documentary 180 South.
In 2010, Jimmy started the production company, Camp 4 Collective with Tim Kemple and Renan Ozturk. Jimmy shot and directed branded content videos and commercials for such companies as The North Face, Pirelli and Apple. Jimmy sold Camp 4 Collective to his partners in 2014. Jimmy is currently finishing a feature length documentary titled Meru with Chai Vasarhelyi, Bob Eisenhardt and Renan Ozturk. The film will premiere in the Winter of 2015.
