Hey all,
Some of you may have seen my last little project “The John Muir Trail (According To Chris)“. I just wanted to share that in partnership with BPL, I’ll be working on an entire film series with original soundtracks written by yours truly. The next release called “Snowshoeing Yosemite Point (According To Chris)” is scheduled for release March 1st.
The series is just how it sounds. Backpacking adventures “According To Chris”. Nothing prescriptive or instructional or enlightening. Just me being “Chris” on the trail, which at times includes technical stuff about gear, terrain, etc. I think these will be useful resources for anyone looking for a preview of the trail.
I’ll be releasing several more short films this year. My big project in Sept is to start shooting for a feature length film on the High Sierra Trail. Wow…”film” and “shooting” makes me sound like I know what I’m doing! ;)
I’m still learning. Thanks to some kind advice from The Muir Project, Greg Aiello, and even Ryan Jordan, I’ll be making drastic upgrades to my camera gear over the next 6 months. You can expect the quality of the releases to improve over time. And yes….this is a VERY serious challenge as far as maintaining UL standards! I’ll need to go SUL just to make room for the new gear!!
Anywho, I hope you enjoy the series. If there’s any trip in particular you’d like me to film, I’m all ears!
-Chris
