The Equitrekking crew must film on horseback in many locations, making light-weight high definition cameras ideal. In Costa Rica, Equitrekking's director of photography Greg Barna and executive producer Chip Ward cantered in a Cabalgata, a wild horse festival, carrying cameras and smiling.
The Equitrekking crew filmed horseback riding, dog sledding and skiing in Quebec in the winter. During the shoot, some of their high definition equipment froze in the extreme cold temperatures. Executive producer Chip Ward brought the equipment back to life by placing it on the vent in a heated snowmobile.
