Production Lamingtons: Renan Ozturk and Taylor Rees
Renan is not only a filmmaker – he is also an expedition climber, landscape artist and is well known for taking his camera into places where you wouldn’t dream of going. He has co-directed and starred in the Sundance 2015 winning film “MERU”, co-directed the TIFF award-winning film “SHERPA”, worked on the National Geographic TV Special “Down To Nothing” and shot stills and video for National Geographic.
Together with his wife and creative partner Taylor Rees, they travel the world, camera-in-hand, searching for their next story to tell.
With a couple of campervans booked and a rough plan to hit the road, we hoped for the best and set about giving Renan and Taylor a taste of what’s on offer out here in New Zealand.
