FORT BOYARD TAKES ON THE WORLD

During August 2004 Shooting Partners Camera & Sound operators headed for Fort Boyard in the south of France, there task was to shoot the links for an International compilation of the French show 'Fort Boyard' for UK screens.

Fort Boyard was snapped up in the 1980's by a TV executive, who transformed it into an adventure game show set.

"There was no easy way to get into the fort we had to load the camera & sound equipment into a huge net that was swung over the forts 20ft wall by a crane. We all then held onto the netting as it swung us up off the boat over the wall and into the fort. " said Shooting Partners Shaun Wilton "We spent the week following the shows host comedian Tim Vine while the contestants completed an array of crazy stunts all captured on digi-beta"
