Life on Camera
Description
Sir David Attenborough gives his unique perspective on over half a century of innovation in wildlife film making-developments that have brought ever more breathtaking and intimate images of wildlife to our television screens, changing our view of life on the planet forever. He revisits key places and events in his filming career, reminisces with his old photos and reflects on memorable wildlife footage-including him catching a komodo dragon and swimming with dolphins. Returning to his old haunts in Borneo, he recalls the challenges of filming in a bat cave and shows how with modern technology we can now see in the dark. A co-production of BBC and Thirteen in association with WNET New York Public Media.
