Two animals. One place. One on land, one in the water.

The format

Each episode works one place from one base.

How it is made

Built to a production standard, not a travel-vlog one.

• A crew, not a camera on a stick.A director of photography, a second camera running sound and drone, and a field producer carrying the logistics so the host only hosts.
• Cinema glass and long lenses.Shot for the animal at distance, with nightly double backup in the field and a real audio kit, because sound is where this kind of filming fails.
• Two parts per place.Each episode is built as a two-part story with a colour grade, a sound mix and an original score, plus short-form cuts.
• Redundancy on the shot that matters.Four attempts at the thing the episode is named after, not one, plus weather buffer days. The odds are the point of the show, so we buy them.
• We keep the library.Partners are licensed the usage they need, in perpetuity and free. Ownership of the footage stays with us.

Partners

What a partner gets, stated plainly.

The show is funded by partners and sponsors rather than by advertising, which is why these conversations happen six to fourteen months before a camera moves. There is no audience yet. What we are offering is the film and the footage, not a view count, and we would rather say that than dress it up.

• Lodges, operators and parksFootage of your place, shot to a standard you could not commission for the price, licensed to you free and in perpetuity for your own marketing, plus a credit in the episode.
• Destinations and tourism bodiesA presenting credit on an episode about your country, category exclusivity for the season, and a custom cut for your own campaigns.
• Gear and category brandsEquipment used in genuine conditions, on camera, by people who need it to work. Optics, tackle, satellite communications, packs, power and apparel.
• Conservation organisationsThe work on screen, in context, with the facts checked with you before publication. The final edit stays with us.
