Film School:  Mount Kilimanjaro

"Serac Adventure Film school was an experience of a lifetime. Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro was unforgettable, but making a film at the same time was what i'll always remember. Michael Brown and Ryan Ross really put you in the best position to tell the story you want, helping you to deal with whatever challenges come up along the way. It wasn't easy, but that's what made it so rewarding. After returning from Africa we did a weekend of editing and Serac's team helped me navigate that process as well. In the end I am proud of the film I made and the adventure that inspired it."
