Gregory comments, “We wanted the grade to be gritty without overdramatizing anything as the scenes themselves are naturally very dramatic. To do this, we maintained a softer side that mirrored the more intimate moments of the film, while also creating a look that reflected the tight and chaotic atmosphere of fighting fire.

I’ve been thinking about this film for a long time, so I was excited to finally see it come to fruition. It’s a really touching project that takes you to places you wouldn’t expect.”

The broadcast premiere of Young Men and Fire is set for October 29, 2018 on PBS. For more of Gregory’s work, check out his reel.
