Alen Milic is the founder of High Seas Productions and has been working as a Producer/D.O.P. in film and television for over 20 years. He has wide ranging experience in producing documentary, sports and travel projects for TV; news reporting from war zones; ENG camera work in harsh environments around the world (deserts, mountains, oceans, underwater, aerial) and various studio filming; linear and non-linear editing; photography and graphic design.
As the owner and operator of Arctic Jungle Films, High Seas Productions and Endangered Islands Expedition, Alen has created, produced and filmed numerous TV programs that have been licensed to broadcasters worldwide (Discovery Intl., OLN, Travel UK, etc.).
Alen began his career working as a photo-journalist for youth magazines in the '70's. After extensive travel through Europe and Africa in the mid '80's, he joined a 3 month camel caravan on a trek through the Sahara as camera assistant on a German documentary featuring nomadic tribes of Africa. The experience laid the foundation for future work, combining his two passions of travel and storytelling through the camera.
His diverse body of work has allowed him to gain an immense cross section of experience: as an interviewer, filming hundreds of interviews for a 50 episode documentary that chronicles the past and present of immigrants in North America; as a war reporter, shooting the '91-'93 conflict in the Balkans; traveling to the remote corners of the world with an ultra-lite airplane while producing the series 'Exploring Horizons'...
An accomplished offshore sailor, Alen’s ancestral connection and passion for the sea and deep interest in island cultures is what inspired the idea for new projects: BUILDING THE DREAM - A TRANSATLANTIC VOYAGE, ENDANGERED ISLANDS EXPEDITION and PIRACY ZONE and he has developed these concepts with a focus on their educational potential and archival value.
