Filmmakers should include:  samples or links to video/photographic work, a resume and any travel &/or time limitations, as well as any intangibles/extras you can bring to the expedition.

Other ways to help:  WA2S.org is in need of an RV/Motorhome.  It is difficult to make a complete list of needs for this expedition, therefore we would prefer monetary donations so that we can obtain only the items necessary to complete this mission.  Thank you!
