Film & Editing Blog - Behind the Scenes

It's day one of filming the Inca Trail in the Peruvian Andes. I took this picture, a self portrait in the mirror of my hotel room in Cuzco (or Qusqo as the Inca's called it). As you can see I'm using the National Geographic Large camera bag and strapped to the back of it you can make out the Jag35/Zacuto Rig with the Canon 5d Mk II and Sennheiser/Marantz sound system.

I'm also carrying a Canon 550D with an L series telephoto lens for stills photography. In the bag is also a Canon HF s21 and a spare batteries, Macbook Pro, charging units and GoalZero solar panel kit. We're still acclimatizing to the altitude as Cuzco is at an altitude of 3400m above sea level and so today is going to be a more relaxed day.

Our first port of call will be Sacsayhuaman which means "Satisfied Falcon" and I'll get some pictures on here when I can.
