BBC Studios Digital Brands is to premiere its latest digital commissions, In Search of Nature and Framed in Nature, two wildlife photography series produced by All3Media’s Aurora Media Worldwide for the YouTube channel BBC Earth and the BBC Earth Explore channel.
The series featuring six wildlife photographers will debut on Monday 3rd March on World Wildlife Day.
In Search of Nature will launch two, six-to-eight-minute episodes weekly on YouTube covering habitats from Brazil’s Atlantic Forest to the tundra of Yellowstone National Park to the coastal islands of South Carolina to the underwater worlds in a Kenyan Marine Park.
The series features photographers such as Rylee Jensen who follows in the tracks of bisons and coyotes in Yellowstone National Park, and Anthony Ochieng Onyango, who documents the impact of climate change on coral reefs in Kenya’s Kisite Mpunguti Marine Park & Reserve.
The companion series, Framed in Nature, featuring six, six-to-eight-minute episodes, delves into the technical aspects of wildlife photography. The series takes viewers through the camera equipment and settings used and demonstrates how to edit images for maximum effect.
Dominique Cutts, Chief Content Officer, Aurora Media Worldwide said: “Rather than flying in an external production crew, we wanted to empower local photographers and videographers to document their world and the wildlife in it. What has emerged is an extraordinarily vibrant, intimate, and diverse series that has taken us from the snowy valleys of Yellowstone to the coral reefs of Kenya and the tea plantations of India without ever leaving our production office in London. We are incredibly proud of this series and the work of all our photographers and videographers across the world, as well as the production team who shepherded the series at home.”
Chris Allen, Director of Content, BBC studios Digital Brands added: “In today’s changing world, we are proud to celebrate and spotlight a new generation of photographers who are capturing the beauty of their local wildlife and recognise the importance of preserving and sharing it with the world. Their work offers a striking glimpse into the incredible diversity of global wildlife and the unique techniques that drive their craft. Aurora has masterfully brought this ambitious vision to life, creating an exciting and dynamic proposition for the BBC Earth brand. We can’t wait to share this inspiring series with audiences everywhere”
