Guest tar Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 A better reason to head to Sundance in 2015. Meru is a documentary film of the successful ascent one of the most tried, over 20 attempts, and hardest lines in the Himalaya; being Sundance, it also draws the bigger picture of human drama. http://www.merufilm.com The altitude was just a tad too high to run a helicopter Cineflex; instead yours truly flew NukeX, and of course, a lick of Houdini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tar Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) For all the bits NukeX couldn't be used Here's some behind the scenes info: https://instagram.com/p/6igAErxI2P/?taken-by=merufilm Edit: If anyone here sees the film, it would be great to hear your reactions to it. As someone who has pursed both the outdoors and vfx for over two decades, it's very interesting to me to hear how others, especially this community, sees the world. Thanks!
