Anthill Films - Behind the Scenes

Last editted Sep 8, 2009 at 10:38
Anthill Films has been working on the film, Follow Me, for quite some time now, and once I heard that they were coming out to Mt.Washington to shoot with Cam McCaul and Darren Berrecloth, I was interested in gathering some information about them, and the film in general. With the main principal being following a rider through a trail or section, Follow Me is set to show us a different perspective on our riding scene, while still featuring some of the biggest name riders in the industry.

And they're off. With Crankworx wrapped up and a little money in a few of the Clump's pockets, it was time for the annual Clump trip. This year it is bigger, better with a big punch at the end.
