Justin Thomson, Moscow Misfits, Filming at -50 Centigrade or 35,000 Ft in the Clouds

OWC RADiO Host, Cirina Catania, throws back some fun memories and catches up with the news from Justin Thomson, an experienced filmmaker/producer and co-founder, Moscow Misfits. Justin's in demand worldwide for his boundless creativity and extensive knowledge of the world of movies and immersive entertainment. Whether it be on a Lufthansa flight 35,000 ft in the clouds, for the Waldorf Project at Wonder Fruit deep in the jungles of Thailand, or with his director co-conspirator, Rory McKeller, in the icy White River in Russia, Justin's there to solve any problem however large or small. And he'll do it with a smile. Justin creates events that break boundaries and push people's limits of what is possible, driving deeper human connection and expanding participants' beliefs of what is possible. Justin says, "If you have ever seen the film, The Game starring Michael Douglas, you'll get what we are about."  There is never a dull moment around the Misfits, thanks in great part to Justin's belief in saying "Yes" to more in life.

I think I met you at your mom and dad's house when you were on a trampoline, and you were carrying a video camera. I don't know how old you were, and I think maybe you were eight or nine or 10. And you had a video camera in your hand, and you're jumping on the trampoline, doing flips and recording the video to see what it was going to look like. And all these years later, I don't think you've changed, have you? No. I still like jumping on trampolines. So, let's just start and have you take a trip down memory lane and tell us what countries you've been in, in the last year or two, can you think? There's probably about 20 of them. There's certainly quite a few off the top of my head, India, Italy, Portugal, the UK, Sweden, Germany, France, Bali, the United States, Thailand. I'm trying to think, but that's what I can think off the top of my head. So how many frequent flyer miles do you have? It's never enough.
