When filming a cycling documentary in Colombia, the first thing our Bogotá, Colombia based film production services company learned was: Colombia has its own set of rules The making of the cycling documentary Thereabouts 3 was perhaps as much of an adventure for our team at WhereNext as it was for Australian pro-cyclist brothers, Gus and Lachlan Morton. Western film production rules don’t always work in Colombia where flexibility can be a more useful production skill than strict timekeeping.
To adapt to Colombian culture and create a formula for a serendipitous storytelling, we traveled and filmed with an itinerary that could (and did) change at any moment. Schedules were made with the knowledge that they would most likely be thrown out the window where we'd pivot to our backup plan, and then a backup to the backup plan.
