At its core, On the Roam is about chasing craft, community, and the kind of stories that stick with you.

The Max Original series follows Jason Momoa across the country as he meets extraordinary individuals who’ve forged their own paths—from blacksmiths and motorcycle builders to glassblowers, musicians, and athletes.

It’s a celebration of grit, passion, and purposeful living.

But for a show rooted in authenticity, the visuals had to hold up their end of the story.

On the Roam is filmed with a cinematic eye—moody, intentional, and emotionally resonant. Every frame feels handcrafted, mirroring the spirit of the makers and mavericks it highlights. That level of storytelling doesn’t leave room for filler footage.

That’s where Filmsupply came in.

The producers needed supplemental footage that matched the show’s aesthetic and tone—something honest, raw, and visually rich. With its carefully curated collection, Filmsupply offered the perfect match: cinematic moments captured by filmmakers who prioritize taste, intention, and storytelling.

From sweeping landscapes that anchored Momoa’s journey to close-up textures that deepened the emotional beats, Filmsupply’s footage blended seamlessly into the series.

More than just a visual bridge, the footage helped heighten the series’ impact without losing its sense of honesty.
