an eye for good content and theybacked it up with scale, budget
and talented technicians to do it the right way. They were encouraging and
supportive of the creative process. I was also really inspired by the book and
its message. The content is a mix of thrill and philosophy, an unexplored
territory and that excites me.”

It’s been a great privilege working with them. They went through extreme
hardships to get the right kind of footage and didn’t leave any stone unturned
to achieve what was required.It is one thing to have the talent it’s quite
another to have the right attitude and I was lucky enough to work with a crew
that had both.It is a great rush doing this project and being a part of
something with meaning.”
