Dave Monk

Producer/Director/Videographer

With a background in television production, creative writing and anthropology, Dave has pursued compelling projects around the world – always searching to bring a good story to life. While he has been run down by numerous animals including camels, donkeys and yaks, most seem to find him entertaining and even a bit charming.

Kathy Monk

Producer/Writer/Editor

Kathy Monk has worked with Brave New Pictures for over 25 years. This longevity has allowed for professional growth and the opportunity to fine-tune working in a technical and ever-changing craft. One thing that has not changed is the joy she takes in threading together beautiful images to complement a strong narrative. Frequent travel has shown her there is a visual rhythm to the world and that knowledge continually informs and inspires her work. As a lifelong learner, Kathy feels she could not have chosen a better profession.
