Erich Roepke: Adventure Filmmaker, Cinematographer, and Photographer
Erich Roepke is an elite adventure filmmaker, cinematographer, and photographer who’s on a mission to live—and capture—a story worth telling. With massive credits to his name like the films Everest: The Other Side and Trango, Roepke doesn’t just capture incredible moments, he does so in some of the harshest conditions on Earth.
In this short feature, Roepke dives into the physical and creative challenges of shooting in extreme conditions, the gear he trusts to get the job done (including OWC’s rugged, high-capacity storage solutions), and why the right camera card is ALMOST as important as the right climbing gear.
From 20-hour days in the mountains to midnight backups with peace of mind, this is a look into the life of a modern explorer with a camera always in hand.
“Climbing gear has to be at the highest caliber. Right up there with that is camera gear. It’s just as important to make sure your memory card doesn’t fail. OWC gear saves me a bunch of headaches. The card is in the camera all day long. I shoot one card all day long, and that’s it.” — Erich Roepke
