Lauren assisted GroPro in producing this mini-documentary "Eagle Hunters in a New World". She took the GoPro team to visit the eagle hunters whom she apprenticed under as a Fulbright scholar and harnessed GoPros to record the eagle's perspective during a hunt. The behind-the scenes video can be seen here. The project was sparked by this Photo of the Day.
