Southeastern Wildlife Expo 2023 | Official Aftermovie
The Southeastern Wildlife Exposition (SEWE 2023) once again transformed Charleston, South Carolina, into the nation’s premier celebration of wildlife, art, and the great outdoors. Spanning five historic venues, the event hosted over 300 exhibitors, 80+ artists, and 90+ events, bringing together outdoor enthusiasts, conservationists, and creators from across the country. Known as one of the largest and most beloved events in the Southeast, SEWE offers something for everyone—live animal demonstrations, retriever competitions, fine art exhibits, and culinary showcases. As one attendee put it, “SEWE is the most dog-friendly event in Charleston—everywhere you look, people are smiling, dogs are wagging, and the city feels alive.”
Captured, filmed, and edited by MadLad Films (Instagram | Facebook | YouTube), the Official SEWE 2023 Aftermovie is a cinematic tribute to the art of conservation and community. Through sweeping aerials, intimate portraits, and dynamic event footage, the film captures every highlight—from the thrilling turkey call competition to the artistry of featured creators like Ryan Kirby, Luke Frazier, Henry Von Genk, and Peggy Watkins. The video showcases Charleston’s charm and the passion that fuels SEWE’s mission to inspire people through wildlife and the outdoors. One of the film’s most powerful reflections states, “Wildlife conservation is more than protection of a few endangered species—it entails management of the whole environment,” underscoring SEWE’s ongoing commitment to the planet we share.
