Our “Why”
When considering the statistics on the rates of biodiversity loss and the multitude of growing threats from climate change to ever expanding human populations, it paints a fairly dire picture. There are lessons to be learnt from nature and the people that still live close to it that need to be revivified in our collective imaginations.
Film is a medium that has the power to spread a message and by getting the general public to engage with these issues, they are given the best chance of getting the attention they need before it is too late.
Meet the Team
Ivan Carter - Producer/ Conservationist & Host
Well known in African wildlife circles for his dedication to all manner of conservation, Ivan believes strongly that poaching and habitat destruction are the main cause of the reduction in wildlife across Africa. His childhood passion for wildlife has developed into a passion for finding the solutions.
Today, he spends his time making conservation initiatives happen through his Foundation and spreading the message of conservation heroes on the frontline with his television series Carter’s W.A.R.
Sean Viljoen - Director/Cinematographer
While fascinated with the craft and skill involved in capturing beautiful imagery, what motivates Sean most is the narrative underlying any form of visual storytelling and the message that it attempts to convey - the art of telling a good story.
Having been exposed to wild places since an early age, Sean is passionate about using his skillset to help protect these remaining pockets of the old world. Film can connect with people and inspire them to change - not only themselves but the world around them.
Our Services
Documentary Film
The purpose of the documentary filmmaker is to record and guide, as the chroniclers of the past centuries did. It’s the ability to awaken certain feelings and thoughts inside your audience - excavate and articulate these collective dreams with some clarity.
There is a deep connection to the natural world that is slipping from our grasp - through the stories we highlight, the lofty attempt is to shine a spotlight of illumination on our existence and pose some questions to our audience about the things that we value most.
