Jason DUnlap

Jason Dunlap is an independent filmmaker, producer, director, editor, and photographer. After studying filmmaking in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C., he hitchhiked the East Coast, documenting people and places along the way. In 2004, at the dawn of the digital filmmaking revolution, he moved onto cannabis activist Eddy Lepp’s farm, built an editing bay, and began filming the extraordinary events that unfolded there. That body of work became the foundation for his feature documentary Emerald Giants: The Legend of Eddy and Linda.
