What we do
(01)
Development
Access, story, structure — finding the film under the film before a single frame is shot.
(02)
Directing
From glacier camps in Alaska to the Sundance stage. Getting people to go somewhere they didn’t expect to go on camera.
(03)
Editorial
Sports Emmy-winning long form. Nearly two decades of cuts for HBO, Netflix and Red Bull Media House.
(04)
Branded content
Stories for brands like Burton and Alterra, long and short, with the same refusal to stay on the surface.
Founder, director & editor
Rose Corr is an Emmy Award-winning director and editor who has spent two decades learning how to push buttons — literally and figuratively.
She’s drawn to the places where adventure and human truth collide — where the stakes are real and the story underneath the surface is more interesting than the one on top.
Before founding Big Lift Media she was a senior editor at Red Bull Media House and spent nearly two years as head of content for the Natural Selection Tour. Her feature directorial debut, Butterfly in a Blizzard, earned two 2026 Sports Emmy nominations.
