In reply to Ayrton:
a) great thing. have fun.
b) decent film idea so long as you avoid all the usual dull cliches many amature films fall into, ie making it about you, rather than about the trip. even the climbing gets boring fast if its not super duper amazing.
but a good road trip/travel bio with climbing as a personal narrative could work - mind you, everything else has to be interesting too. 30mins of grunting, repeats and climbers lingo wont keep many asses on seats.
tips:
show local stuff, and not just zany 'freakin hardcore man' shit (its not a snow boarding film).
avoid cliches and give some sincere depth (token temples and fried cockroaches in thailand isnt interesting)
give some 'why' to it (show some process, give things a reason)
be someone interesting (yet another 'dude' whooping it up with no views on the world throws away the films star actor. be an interesting person doing interesting things).
go beyond lonely planet (weve all seen the usual culture shock stuff like cheao thai bungalows, flushing toilets in australia and fat people with guns in the us - give us something new).
tits (if all else fails, at least have girls in bikinis)
that may sound picky, but after seeing loads of climbing films, tho ones i remember are not for the climbing but for the 'where, who and how'.
in your research, look beyond climbing films for ideas (both to pursue and avoid). other genres like kayaking, war tourism and foodism often have interesting ideas - climbing films are pretty unsophisticated really.
if you drop by japan let me know. some good granite, weird shit and i will hold your camera for a few days.
