My name is Jack Blair. I’m a US Army Veteran and the founder and creative director of Overland Productions.
I’m based in Phoenix, Arizona, but you’ll find me wherever I’m able to work with Veterans amplifying their voices and stories.
After 16 years of military service I followed my passion to work in multi-media, first by starting an online community for Overlanding, using nature immersion and off-roading as therapy for Veterans with PTSD.
Now I’m working to capture and tell Veteran Stories online through my podcast, The Veteran Stories Podcast.
Workforce Motion Picture Productions: The Sintern
On the feature film, The Sintern, streaming soon in June 2024, I was the Production Coordinator for the film, I coordinated payroll for cast and crew, facilitated film logistics, served as key problem solver. I worked with producers, Adam Collis and Miguel Valenti to make the movie happen, on time and on budget.
At the Veteran Stories Podcast I aim to capture the stories of Veterans and amplify those who are serving our Veteran Community. Season 1 is on-going and I’m excited to find and highlight resources for veterans throughout the season.
Following the end of the Pandemic, the Office Hours community came together for a rocket launch in the Nevada Desert on Jean Dry Lake.
I worked as a Logistics Specialist and an Aerial Photographer and my aerial photography was heavily featured throughout the live stream.
I covered the Overland Expo 2023 by live streaming interviews from vendors and creators that had all traveled to Flagstaff, Arizona from all over the globe to gather for the largest Overland gathering in the world.
In 2022 I headed to SEMA to cover the Specialty Equipment Market Association trade show hosted in Las Vegas, Nevada. I filmed interviews with several vendors wrote articles about the products we saw and tested.
