Hike in the autumn sun

With the autumn sun in full effect, we strapped up and headed towards Molden. After some huffing and puffing + a tiny bit of sweat, we arrived at the idyllic viewpoint Svarthiller. A magnificent view out over the fjord and mountains. Perfect spot to start with some filming.

Excellent resting spot.

Hornindal Rundt

In mud and rain we strolled our way up the mountaintops to capture the mountain race Hornindal Rundt. The race consisted of an extreme 75 km spread over 6 mountaintops and 5600 height meters. To cover such great distances we stationed multiple drone and handheld teams throughout the entire track that moved dynamically as the race went on.

Bellow you can check out a small cut from NRK featuring out clips from the day and a few behind the scenes pictures.

Aurlandsfjorden in the sunset

3 words to describe this week’s film shoot for Bergans: Fjords, mountains, and sunset!

Not too long after we started walking we stumbled upon an amazing viewpoint looking out over Aurlandsfjorden all the way to Flom. We were not the only one attracted to this place that day, as the place was flooded with paragliders that flew over the edge all day long. Therefore, we had to strap up and head further upwards. There we found the perfect spot.

As we found our spot the weather started clogging up and we lost the sun. As optimistic as we were we waited and waited, but no sun reappeared. The next day we tried again and this time, the sun was shining strong!

Clothes featured:
MICROLIGHT LADY JACKET
SOLUND JACKET

Keipen Hiking

Falkeblikk_triumph_motorcycle_veitastrond-0648

This Sunday Visit Sognefjord published their new film about the hiking top Keipen that we produced last autumn. It is the highest top towards the coast. As you might imagine it results in a magnificent view, or better yet, you don’t have to imagine. Just take a look for yourself!

Hammock by the fjord

Summer is in full effect which for us means more time produce. Yesterday we filmed a Bergans weather spot for TV2. The film shoot took us over the fjord by ferry and onwards to Kroken.

Camping at Kaupangerholten

This week we went a trip to Kaupangerholten to shoot another Bergans weather spot for Norwegian TV2.

This time for a tent and two backpacks in magnificent nature. It’s pretty awesome to say that we have this kind of locations a mere 10-20 min away from our office. With access to the key for a turnpike, we were able to drive just next to the camping spot, leaving us with only about a 100m walk left.

For this job the RED Epic was just the right camera for the job, (especially combined with our camera slider) to capture the nature in its true pristine state.

Tent:
TROLLHETTA 3-PERS TENT

Backpack:
SKARSTIND 48

Pretty awesome view at this place.
Setting the camera just right.
Approved by Tore Lie.

Filmshoot in Myrkdalen

The last days we had a trip to Myrkdalen ski resort where we were set out to film both a commercial and a weather spot to be sent on Norwegian broadcaster TV2 for a clothing line from Bergans of Norway.

The sun was shining all day long with little to no clouds in the skies, so we couldn’t have asked for better weather!

Staying refreshed!
