Video Podcast from Mount Everest
May 24th, 2006 | By James Lewin | Category: General, Video PodcastsA new video podcast, The Rest of Everest documents a 2003 expedition to the Northeast Ridge route to the top of Mount Everest.
The video podcast, created by documentary filmmaker Jon Miller of TreeLine Productions in Colorado, is “the rest” of the footage from the expedition documentary Everest: The Other Side, which premiered on Dish Network Pay-Per-View in May of 2005.
The film and video podcast document the 2003 expedition to the Northeast Ridge route in Tibet, and coincides with the 50th anniversary climbing season. The story revolves around 23-year old climber Ben Clark and the fulfillment of his dream to become one of the youngest climbers to ever summit Everest.
It is the first podcast in the world to document an entire expedition, rather than just the occasional few minutes of highlights.‚ÄúHow can you compress an experience as large as Everest into 90 minutes? You can only show a small part of the total expedition,” according to filmmaker Jon Miller. “Podcasting is an entirely new way to tell this story‚Äîone which can accurately show the full depth of the experience. Viewers will come away with an overall understanding what it is like to be part of a major expedition.‚Äù
