film production

We focus on making films about local conservation heroes, solutions to human-wildlife conflict and amazing wildlife stories. We tailor our films for communities living alongside wildlife and we make them in the local language. We work closely with your organisation to understand your conservation needs and make sure the films are then shown on our bicycle-powered cinema, where you think they will have the biggest impact. We are passionate about featuring people from local communities, thus making them far more relatable and inspiring to their fellow communities. ​We have our own filming equipment and a wildlife filming vehicle in Kenya which allows us to be cost effective and act quickly.

Some of the conservation heroes we have made films about.

KITONGA

He recalls a time in his youth when rhinos could be seen everywhere but then people started hunting them to the point when rhinos became extinct in his area. The community came together to bring Rhinos back.

Sisco

Baboons are generally a hated species across most of Africa. Regarded as a pest, but having spent the last few years habituating himself within a troop of baboons he has grown to love them.

Kingasunye

A role model for young girls, she played a huge role in convincing many of her community members to give up their land for the benefit of the wildlife.

Wilfred

A huge problem across Kenya is over grazing, but instead of telling people to reduce their number of cattle he has a fresh outlook and tries to get people to engage with better livestock management arounds the rains.

Susan

Susan, despite having never seen animals like elephants, rhinos and lions, she loves wildlife and loves watching the wildlife she finds around her home. She actively tries to teach her family and neighbours about the animals.

Youseff

A 13-year-old, he may be young but his enthusiasm for wildlife is infectious, he has an important message to tell all other young people.

WILDLIFE Filming vehicle

We own a Toyota Land Cruiser in Kenya which we have turned into a wildlife filming vehicle. The car is equipped with a filming door and gimbal mount, the car helps us to get beautiful wildlife footage and also means we are less reliant on our partner organisation's resources. For more information about the car please see Jamie's website
