Patagonia "Pull"
A short film and photography series featuring Patagonia ambassador Timmy O’Neill and his paraplegic brother Sean O’Neill as they set out to climb the 2,200 Northwest Face of Half Dome. The captured stills and video were broadcast live on social media during the climb on the side of Half-Dome as a precursor to the screening of the completed film to a sold-out audience at Patagonia’s headquarters. This was a unique project: a live event with an unknown outcome building electrifying anticipation for the feature premiere.
