Dylan Wineland is an accomplished DP/Director based out of Salt Lake City, UT. He has traveled the world shooting documentaries and limited series for HBO, Redbull, and the Olympics, and has shot national ads and social pieces for Salesforce, K&N Air filters, BFGoodrich tires and many more. He is known for his ability to tell a range of emotionally driven stories through his striking imagery and thoughtful direction, as well as his uniquely timeless and artistic style. Dylan’s genuine curiosity and love of human experiences guides every project he is a part of, as well as his mastery of his craft.  From heartwarming stories about quadriplegics to visceral motorcycle films, his biggest goal is to move his viewers either through the stories or the visual experience. He believes that if one person can walk away from one of his films wanting to be a better person or to try something new, he has succeeded in what he has set out to do.

SUMMARY

Aaron’s relationship with his dirt bike has been vital throughout his entire life. It has always been his doorway to a sacred space. After experiencing the unexpected loss of his long time partner, Aaron’s relationship with his bike took on an even deeper meaning than he could have ever imagined. By getting on the bike and stepping through that doorway, Aaron was able to grieve and find some semblance of joy in his life again. More than just a machine, his motorcycle has been a passage to healing, growth, and a conduit to feeling close to his beloved again.
