Arwen Hunter

Since 2003 somethingsomething studios has pushed the boundaries of non-fiction storytelling. Arwen Hunter helms projects that take her from from the centre of the vast Pacific Ocean to crossing Canada at 500ft in a bush plane. She has produced projects for History Television, the Lifetime Network, CBC North and Victoria's CHEK Television, often interviewing A-list talent including Harrison Ford and Kim Bassinger.

Arwen produced and edited the controversial documentary “Petals” which debuted and was nominated in its category at the International Documentary Festival of Amsterdam – the world’s largest documentary film festival. The film has since been celebrated around the world at festivals, broadcast on Israeli TV, and released on DVD in Canada by Mongrel Media.

Working in collaboration with Gamut Productions in Victoria, Arwen's client list has included the Ministry of Agriculture, Tourism Vancouver Island, Transport Canada, Viking Air, the PHSA First Nations Health Council and agencies such as Copeland and Redbird Communications. With the Gamut team, Arwen criss-crossed Vancouver Island by car, train, plane, helicopter, and travelled the Salish Sea by sailboat and traditional cedar canoe. Arwen assisted in filming a Potlach, a Powow, a Canoe Journey, an entire Treaty Process, and enjoyed extensive travels to cultural tourism destinations - all the while developing a deep respect for the culture and traditions of Canada's first peoples.

Working mainly in High Definition, Arwen also often dabbles in Super 8 film projects and has devoted many hours toward programs aimed at giving media skills to “Youth at Risk”. Several exciting projects are currently in development, including Sky's the Limit - an international business travel program produced in partnership with CHEK Television.
