NORTHERN EXPOSURE
Director/ Camera // HD422 // ITV/BFBS
In early 2011, Matt Stowers and Jules Weekes will undertake the 'Everest of Polar expeditions'. For approximately 60 days they will ski, walk and swim unaided from Northern Canada to the Geographic North Pole. They will cross almost 500 miles of in one of the harshest environments on earth navigating the constantly shifting pack ice.
Prior to departure, they spent two weeks in the French Alps in (comparatively warm) temperatures of -20C testing their equipment and were filmed for SSVC/BFBS, ITV and other media partners.
