Wildlife documentary producer-director Mandi Stark takes us behind the scenes of filming natural history across the globe. Featuring stories from BBC One’s Dynasties 2 and The Hunt, Netflix’s Our Planet, and DisneyNature’s Bears, she gives an insight into how wildlife sequences are filmed and how the approach to filmmaking is changing in the face of the climate crisis. Having filmed everything from bears in British Columbia and wolves in the Highlands of Ethiopia to snow geese in Missouri and sandhill cranes in Nebraska, she shares these stories with us.
