It was this journey that would prepare him for his first documentary entitled: The Map Makers: Project Colombia. Distressed over the current use of main stream media, Dickenson and his friend Adam Tanner set out to prove that there is in fact a positive reality underneath this constant barrage of negative media. Believing there is an underlying gel that connects us all, Dickenson films all over the world asking strangers the most basic, but often the most profound, questions about the human condition.
He currently calls Seattle, Washington his home base and has fallen madly in love with the Pacific North West. He has been a whitewater raft guide, a preschool teacher, a university commencement speaker, a freelance writer, a videographer, a stand-up comedian, and an announcer for Warren Miller Ski Films and has been to over 30 countries.
