Braeden is a documentary filmmaker and candidate for the Montana State University MFA in Science & Natural History Filmmaking.

He earned a B.S. in Biological Sciences with a Honors Baccalaureate and merges his passions for the arts, sciences, and communicating prevalent issues in the natural world through compelling storytelling and films. Inspired by a life spent in the Rocky Mountains of Montana and Wyoming, he is most at home in the outdoors and hopes to share the same interest with a broad audience through film, photography, and science.

With an emphasis on observational and vérité modes, Braeden’s work explores the realms between scientific inquiry and public understanding covering a range of topics.

As a filmmaker and artist, his interests are guided by the relationships between people, the sciences, and their impact on and interactions with the world around them. With years of experience in biological sciences, research and conservation, and documentary filmmaking, his work aims to inform the public about the unique realms of science, natural history, and everyday life that can be observed through a scientific, cinematic, and approachable lens to bridge the gap between these often separated worlds.
