EP Films is a group of award-winning media professionals committed to protecting wild places and wild animals. In 2008, the three-man team of adventurers--Trip Jennings, Kyle Dickman and Andy Maser-- descended the highest volume rapids in the world, bringing back scientific data for National Geographic and the USGS on the Lower Congo River. One year later, EP Films produced Flathead Wild, a documentary that helped protect the Flathead River from open pit coal mining and gas extraction. EP’s portfolio includes documentary film work for National Geographic, PBS, Save Our Wild Salmon, the International League of Conservation Photographers, and more.

EP utilizes SPOT satellite technology when traveling the globe to stay in touch with support teams, sponsors and scientists. Because SPOT uses 100% satellite technology, EP is able to send short updates to their ground crews and even their Facebook profile from remote areas.

In March 2011 EP heads to the Democratic Republic of Congo for their Elephant Ivory Project. The team aims to identify the locations and types of elephants being poached in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The project will use social media and a feature documentary to raise global awareness to the growing trade of illegal ivory.

Jose Wejebe is host of Spanish Fly TV on the Outdoor Channel. Filled with breathtaking underwater footage, spectacular cinematography, complimentary editing, the light-tackle saltwater guru shows viewers each week a unique interactive style of fishing that no one had done before. He uses techniques that he learned throughout his travels and continues to do so today.

While not filming Spanish Fly, Jose finds time to work for several charities including Make a Wish Foundation, Cystic Fibrosis and Big Brothers and Big Sisters. He feels strongly the importance of taking the time to fish with kids and teach the next generation of anglers.

In the present day, Jose enjoys his new passion of flying private aircraft. He also continues to explore unchartered fishing grounds and expand his knowledge for local fishing techniques.
