It sounds neat. I would be very interested in the Off-Camera Lighting piece; and how they skin that cat if they're only using OEM equipment given what Godox etc., have recently done for Fuji Wireless TTL. As for the rest of it, nothing else really catches my attention. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing other people's work and how they approach a given subject or genre, but it would take a lot more to drag me down there.
Notably there are many Fuji-oriented (but not necessarily endorsed) workshops and field trips that you could consider if you wanted more shooting opportunities in unique places. I'm not affiliated with any of these outfits, but here's a smattering:
