SHELTON, CT, DECEMBER 8, 2011-While filming on location in sub-zero temperatures, it wasn't long before Producer Joe Lloyd of Curbsyde Productions realized that in order to keep his gear running he would need a reliable power solution, able to withstand the brutal elements of northern Canada. Anton/Bauer®, a brand of The Vitec Group, and a premier global provider of batteries, chargers, lighting and other mobile power systems for the professional broadcast, video and film industries provided the solution. Lloyd turned to the Anton/Bauer DIONIC® 90 and QR-DSLR Gold Mount® to help film "Going Through RTW: The North," a documentary which follows a group of travelers as they explore the arctic portion of northern Canada by motorcycle.

The eight-episode documentary is part of a larger series entitled Reconnecting With Canada, that documents motorcycle enthusiasts as they tour the different regions of Canada.

"After seeing a variety of other countries, I wanted to experience my own," he explains.
