07 - Warren Miller Film's with TRK
TRK Helicopters is once again excited about the upcoming ski season. Check out last season's action as TRK was involved with two major skiing films. Skeena Heliskiing was host to Warren Miller's production team for the filming of the recently released "Playground."
In addition, Colorado based Teton Gravity Research debuted their lastest film "Lost and Found" in mid October. As filming was very involved for flight and camera crews during production, some spectacular Heli scenes are included. An additional camera ship was used to get the many "in flight shots" of the athletes and their Helicopter. Be sure to watch the credit as two weeks of filming makes for some pretty good outtakes!
