Jordan Richard's older brother, Justin, took his life at 25 years old. He lived his life with passion and a spirit of adventure. On July 30th, 2016, Jordan would be turning 35, and in honor of his brother's memory, he wanted to live his life in a similar fashion.
Each day starting 35 days before his birthday, Jordan set out to do something he'd never done before. Each day had a new challenge, both big and small. The process was documented and the goal of the final video project was to draw people to a campaign benefitting The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

Most of this project was documented by Jordan using a GoPro, but Days 4, 6, 7, 9, 13, 19, 25, and 33 were documented by me on a Canon 7D Mark II.
I handled all post-production duties, including editing picture and sound, color correction, selecting music, creating graphics, and encoding.
Jordan started off his adventures by joining Instagram on day one. From there, he documented the rest of the challenges.
I took the photo of Jordan on Day 7 and he took the rest.
