Epic.

post your favorites.

unfortunately i haven't been able to catch planet earth due to school work owning my soul, but i plan to see reruns, and youtube feeds my obsession for awesome nature footage for now.

planet earth is the greatest tv show i've ever seen i bought the HD DVD set off www.amazon.com they got the 12 episode season right now for 40% off the total price. came out to about 60 USD if i remember correctly.

documentary making 101

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my father in law has recently retired from working as a wildlife documentary producer for KBS in korea.

now he wants to start up his own production company specialising in wildlife (birds, insects and flowers), but he feels the level of technical expertise in shooting documentaries, especially in korea, is still at a relatively primative level, compared to the bbc, national geographic, discovery channel, etc..

so hes given me the task of compilling a library of sorts, of knowledge that has been built up.

the only thing i can think of is dvd box sets of david attenbourough series, with a "making the series" featurette being the most important thing.

another thought was to email someone working in brunel university, where ive seen them advertising a Masters in documentary making, and asking for their reading list.

where should i start looking?

please help.

thank you for listening
