our work

Our work spans short documentaries, conservation films, and mini series, always rooted in the field and driven by the stories we find there. Below is a selection of what we have produced to date, with more in the making.

in the field: perú

In the Field: Perú is a seven-part mini documentary series following the field research programs of Fauna Forever and Wilderness International at Secret Forest Research Station in the Peruvian Amazon.

From ornithology and caiman surveys to botany and research on reptiles & amphibians, each episode immerses the viewer in a different area of conservation science, putting a human face on the people dedicating their lives to protecting one of Earth's most biodiverse ecosystems.

in the field: namibia (in progress)

Our next series takes us to Namibia, where researchers from Fauna Forever and the University of Namibia are working to establish baseline biodiversity data across two contrasting reserves.

Spanning three episodes, we follow their work with birds, bats, and small mammals in the rocky Erongo Mountains and the vast plains of the Kalahari, in a region where scientific knowledge is still scarce and every dataset matters.

Two people, Luke Pembroke and Nadine Holmes, in a dense jungle of the amazon lowland rainforest; one man sitting on a fallen tree holding a camera with a large lens (Sony 200-600m), and one woman standing with binoculars, looking into the distance.

A man with a beard and short brown hair, wearing a light gray shirt, is holding a large camera with a Sony 200-600mm telephoto lens in a dense forest of the Amazon lowland rainforest. The background features lush green trees and foliage.

Craghoppers' NosiLife range is built for exactly the kind of environments we work in every day.

We partnered with the outdoor clothing brand to produce a series of videos and photographs showcasing how their insect-protection clothing performs where it matters most: deep in the Amazon, where being able to focus on the work rather than the insects biting you makes all the difference.
