RAVI JULY 10, 2017 13:24 IST UPDATED: JULY 10, 2017 13:41 IST As National Geographic’s mega live show Earth Live goes on air this morning, wildlife cinematographer Sandesh Kadur talks about the importance of capturing a slice of animal life in environment conservation Considering its scale, reach and coverage, the much talked about National Geographic’s Earth Live, a two-hour live broadcast by world’s leading wildlife cinematographers, can be called an epic television show. Covering key locations across six continents, it will be simulcast in 171 countries and 45 languages. From hyenas of Ethiopia to rare and elusive ocelots, from Mexican free-tailed bats in Texas to beluga whale breeding grounds at Canada, from lion http://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/one-with-the-world/article19249779.ece 1/4 4/12/2018 One with the world - The Hindu prides at Kenya’s Masai Mara to flamingos in Mexico , it will be global wildlife non-stop. In India it will be telecast early morning today. From India well known photographer and filmmaker Sandesh Kadur is showcasing the Old World monkeys, langurs. Calling it a privilege to be part of the show, he says what makes it different is not merely the scale and scope. “Capturing what is happening at the very moment makes it organic for the audience as sitting at their homes they watch slices of animal world like never before. A documentary normally is shot over years and then edited but in this case you see live action of varied animals at different places and time.

  • Wild India, Nat Geo Wild
    BROADCAST BLOG Working with local crews can take a production to the next level, writes Icon Films’ Harry Marshall. Wild India, Nat Geo Wild 13 February, 2012 Wild India was completed from start to finish in just nine months. For a three-part blue chip natural history series that took into multiple locations and events – many of which were very season specific - this was little short of miraculous. The only reason we were able to do this was down to Icon’s 21 years of experience working in India and critically, working with Indian film teams in the field. It was truly an Anglo-Indian collaboration and although it would seem obvious to work like this, it’s surprising how few Indians are ever used on international wildlife films that are shot in India. I think this is a wasted opportunity for lots of reasons, the least of which is the long haul travel. There were three British members of the team working from Bristol. The series director Duncan Chard and his AP Sam Mansfield. There was also Brendan McGinty, that rare beast – a cameraman equally comfortable shooting wildlife on a long lens as he is filming a fashion event on the catwalk. His job was to bring the fresher more contemporary feel which National Geographic Wild had asked us to brand the series. In the eight-strong local Indian team we had two principle cameramen: Sandesh Kadur and Sarvanakumar Salem – or Sara for short. Sara has worked with Icon on a dozen films since 1995 when we made a show called Elephant Men.

  • It's Our Anniversary & You Have 50 Reasons to Join
    GALÁPAGOS CELEBRATING YEARS 50 IT’S OUR ANNIVERSARY & YOU HAVE 50 REASONS TO JOIN US! 1 REASON IS FREE AIR TM DEAR TRAVELER, image from 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of my father’s opening up of blessing tourism to the Galápagos Islands. It was another pioneering ceremony milestone for the man who is credited as the ‘father of eco- tourism.’ An explorer and a conservationist, he cared deeply about how bringing visitors to this special place could work to conserve this unbelievably rich environment. And now, five decades later we still believe that to be true. It is important for people to experience this unique place, to be inspired by it, to have fun in it, and to become an ambassador for its preservation. So I fervently hope you choose to take some of your valuable time to venture here. It’s not that far, yet oh-so-different from anything you have ever experienced. And, I hope that we will make a convincing case on the following pages that when you decide to go, you should choose to go with us. Our team had some fun of their own compiling 50 reasons to experience the Galápagos during our 50th, which I hope you will also find fun and inspiring. So please give it a look, it is a place for all ages, whether 8 or 80, with a lot to see, feel and be touched by in a multitude of ways. I know, as I’ve been here at least 50 times and brought friends and my four kids on numerous expeditions.

  • Wild, Strange & Wonderful Galápagos Fifty Years In
    Cover: Frigatebird. ©Emily Mount. WILD, STRANGE & WONDERFUL FIFTY YEARS GALÁPAGOS IN GALÁPAGOS AND YOU GET EVERYTHING IT HAS TO OFFER FREE AIR TOO SVEN OLOF-LINDBLAD A LETTER TO TRAVELERS ⊲ CELEBRATING YEARS 50ABOARD NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ISLANDER AND NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ENDEAVOUR II | 2017-18 TM In 1967, I landed on South Plaza Island in the Galápagos Islands with no idea what to really expect. As we anchored our boat, there was a cacophony of sounds emanating from the island– raucous bird cries and melodic barking, if there is such a thing. With almost uncontrollable excitement, we boarded our dinghy to go ashore. The landing was covered with sea lions who rose up to stare at us as if they had never before seen a human. They barked enthusiastically, and some hurled themselves into the water surrounding our craft, leaping, twisting in the water in what seemed like intense glee. Later, I would learn that indeed these sea lions had seen very few, if any, humans. And their display of curiosity made that conclusion undeniable. As we explored the island, we were immediately struck by one powerful observation: Not a single creature displayed even the slightest hint of fear as we walked by. Boobies on nests simply stared at us as we passed within a few feet; land iguanas just kept eating their cactus fruit. The sea lions, particularly the young ones, tried to approach us to investigate the new creatures. It was enthralling beyond description, beautiful, exciting and, on many occasions, just downright comical. This was clearly paradise for anyone who enjoys the company of wild animals going about their business.

  • Private Jet Expeditions
    2017–2018 Private Jet Expeditions Africa by Private Jet • Around the World by Private Jet • Asia by Private Jet Australia and New Zealand by Private Jet • Great Empires by Private Jet: Exploring Ancient Persia to the Mediterranean Sacred Places: An Exploration of Faith and Culture by Private Jet Dear Traveler, All around the globe, National Geographic explorers—our researchers, conservationists, writers, and photographers—have helped illuminate and demystify our planet, bringing us insights into culture and wildlife and helping us understand geology, geography, and the origins of our species. From documenting the wildlife of the Okavango Delta to excavating lost cities in Central Asia, the breadth of their fieldwork is astonishing. And there are few better ways to fathom the extent of their reach—or the magnificent diversity of our planet—than by witnessing it firsthand via private jet. In the following pages, you’ll find six extraordinary expeditions that crisscross the globe, each celebrating treasures both natural and cultural. Our newest expedition traces the legacies of great empires like the Ottomans and the Persians as we make our way from Isfahan, Iran, to Ancient Merv, Serbia, and beyond. Along with our classic Around the World itinerary, we’ll explore some of the most spiritually significant sites on the planet—from Jerusalem and Rome to Lalibela, Ethiopia—on our upcoming Sacred Places expedition. And we’ll delve into the myriad wonders of three continents on journeys that focus on Asia, Africa, and Australia and New Zealand. What sets apart these trips are the National Geographic experts who accompany us and the extraordinary researchers we meet in the field.

    GALÁPAGOS CELEBRATING YEARS 50GET EVERYTHING IT HAS TO OFFER FREE AIR TOO ABOARD NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ISLANDER AND TM NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ENDEAVOUR II | 2017/2018/2019 WHY GO TO GALÁPAGOS? Perhaps it’s a matter of personal interests. Wildlife? Nature? Conservation? Cool islands of the world? Perhaps you loved life sciences as a kid; biology, zoology courses later, and like to continue learning on vacation. Maybe you were inspired by reading Darwin’s The Voyage of the Beagle, or Jonathan Weiner’s best-selling, The Beak of the Finch, a dozen articles in National Geographic over the years; a documentary on Animal Planet; or were impressed by Tui de Roy’s superb photography books on the islands. Perhaps you think of Galápagos as the experiential equivalent of ‘required reading’ to be an informed citizen of the planet. You might feel your kids or grandkids need to know about Galápagos. Maybe friends went, loved it, and so, you decided to go too. Or perhaps you simply like the idea that it’s on the Equator, and a warm refuge from winter— with more ‘content’ than a beach vacation. Above: Get up close in Galápagos. Cover: Blue-footed boobies in courtship display. © Michael S. Nolan WHY GO TO GALÁPAGOS? Whatever your reasons for choosing to go to Galápagos—you’re right. It’s one of the most rewarding, and transformative, travel experiences a person can have. And it will exceed every expectation you bring to it. In our 50 years of leading expeditions, we have learned that the people who choose Galápagos are invariably interesting, and have thoughtful reasons for choosing it.
