Mitch Popa Productions Presents

Costa Rica - Protecting The Web Of Life
A beautiful documentary about the past, present and future of the Osa Peninsula.

Welcome to the website for Mitch Popa Productions. I have worked in video production for 20 years. My latest project is on a place I have grown to know and love, the Osa Peninsula in southern Costa Rica. The peninsula is home to Corcovado National Park, which has been described by National Geographic as the most biological intense place on the planet. After first visiting the peninsula in 1999, I decided I was going to use my skills in video production to produce a program highlighting this regions ecological importance and the reasons it needs to be protected. The results are this 3-part DVD. I hope you enjoy it. Please share it with friends and family. A portion of every sale goes to the protected areas of the Osa Peninsula.


"Mitch Popa is a true professional and dedicated to using his skills in video production to educate people about the importance of rainforests and conservation in general. This 2-DVD set will do both, educate people about rainforest conservation and promote Costa Rica as an ecotourism destination. I have worked with Mitch in the past and I am sure that every one that participates in this project, not only will see benefits for years to come, but will also be part in the efforts to save such an important and beautiful natural legacy."
