Guy has coordinated a team of specialist personnel for many alpine film shoots, including documentaries, commercials and a feature film - The Vertical Limit; a large scale Hollywood production recently filmed in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. Guy's role was advisor to the Director, First Unit Safety Coordinator and coordinator for a specialist film unit in Pakistan. In 2014 Guy worked as the Key Alpine Advisor to a Hollywood movie about the Everest 1996 story being shot on location in Nepal, Italy and in the studios in London of Working Title.

An exciting project was the making of a documentary entitled X-Force - The Science of Mountaineering with Natural History New Zealand. The film follows the progress of Guy Cotter, Takashi Ozaki and Bryan Moore on our successful expedition to Makalu in 2001 and has amazing graphics explaining the science behind high altitude mountaineering.

Our portfolio for leading and overseeing Safety, Locations and Talent includes Columbia Pictures with ‘The Vertical Limit’, Warren Miller, PBS with ‘Anyplace Wild’ and ‘Wild Productions’, Nova, BC Productions, ‘Road Rules’, BBC, Eco-Challenge, Paddy Pallin, Louis Vuitton - Incredible Journey, Gap - Athleta 2009/2010/2011/2012, Beyond The Edge 2013 - the feature film story of the first ascent of Mt Everest by Hillary and Tenzing in 1953.

In 2014 Guy was the Key Alpine Advisor for the movie Everest and also supervised Mountain Safety on location in Nepal and in the Italian Alps. His role in the movie, which tells the story of the Everest 1996 disaster, is played by Sam Worthington.
