Travel programs with Martin Gremmelspacher and Petrol Bags

December 2013 The production company ask-Television specializes in adventure and travel films. A further focus of the company is the production of industrial films. Cinematographer Martin Gremmelspacher from Germany, who was involved in the making of Golf Tours one of the most successful European-wide travel series, has dedicated himself to making adventure, sport-action, and landscape films. For this reason, he is the first choice for the filming of various travel programs for ask-TV. While filming, the cinematographer works with the Deca Campack Camera Backpack (PC301) by Petrol Bags, a part of Vitec Videocom, a Vitec Group company.

This year, Martin Gremmelspacher filmed with the Canon XF305 in many different places around the world. "I was on the road in Portugal, India, and Austria, says Gremmelspacher describing his work. "But during my numerous flights and trips, I dont have to worry about my equipment: All of my equipment is safely stowed in the Deca Campack Camera Backpack by Petrol Bags. Gremmelspacher must have all of his equipment with him, and it has to be ready to be used at all times so he can respond flexibly to various situations. "The backpack has become indispensable for me during countless outdoor shoots. It offers a lot of storage space and is, at the same time, very lightweight, explains the cinematographer.

Convincing quality

The ergonomic Deca Campack Camera Backpack provides for ideal weight distribution. Together with the soft straps, a high degree of carrying comfort is guaranteed. "In addition to its low weight, I especially appreciate two things about my Petrol Bags backpack: the countless partitioning possibilities and the side pockets, says Gremmelspacher. Removable and padded dividers protect the equipment optimally and, at the same time, serve as compartments to stow various accessories. In the separate compartment on the backside of the camera backpack, there is also space for a laptop with a 17-in screen. "The Deca Campack also wins me over in terms of quality, notes Gremmelspacher. "Of course, the weather is mostly sunny for the filming of travel programs, but sometimes thunderstorms suddenly appear in the sky. No matter how much it rains, my equipment never gets wet, says the cinematographer summing up his experience. "Next year, I will be traveling to Asia and South America to film a documentary. My Deca Campack Camera Backpack will accompany me again.
