"This unique program combines hands on experience, 'classroom' curriculum and outdoor adventure. The balance was perfect and allowed me to explore all the aspects of film making, from developing a compelling story, to filming in harsh conditions with HD equipment and editing the documentary in Final Cut Pro. The learning curve was as steep as our climb up the mountain and equally rewarding. Michael Brown and his team have shot films at the top of Everest and collected prestigious industry awards. Getting access to the depth of experience of the Serac Adventure Film professionals was amazing and invaluable."
