Synopsis

We filmed around the Swiss alps from our base in Interlaken supported by Swiss Helicopters to get us to our various locations on the mountains and for our aerial filming also.  Main unit filmed aerial sequences and ground-based flyovers and the splinter unit was dropped into location by helicopter for remote flyover coverage.

The units had to be light for maximum flexibility for location and aerial work so cross-skilling was essential.

We filmed on a variety of beamsplitter and parallel rigs and Nikon primes for resolution.
