Hmmm. With all the fiscal cliff stuff going on, I must have missed the passing of that law.

I think he meant that half-day bookings are becoming less common these days.

I'm looking to add to my experience list, and I'd love to travel outside of the country. I currently run my own wedding videography business but given the chance I'd love to make some international connections and travel abroad learning with an experienced group. All film/video related positions are of interest.

Looking for an Adobe Premier Pro guru, someone who could consult for at our agency in Northern NJ. We already know the interface, and can do basic editing, but need someone who knows Premiere inside-out who can take us to the next level, guide hardware choices, color grading, etc. We use After Effects a lot and would be bringing AE comps into Premiere, so knowledge of that round-trip would be essential. Any leads appreciated! Thanks!

We are in production of a new show called “Animal Science", we are looking for specific animals for our show. We want animals in there natural habitat doing what they do best. The best footage will be of animals in action, and we want close-up shots of the animals.

"Animal Science" premiered in syndication last fall, it is an E/I (Educational/Informative) kids program designed to go behind the science of animals and what they do in the wild. "Animal Science", airs on over 150 U.S Broadcast stations representing 70 percent of the country's television households. We also produce 3 other long running E/I programs, " Wild About Animals:, "Awesome Adventures" and "Whaddyado".

I am posting on here looking for these awesome animal clips. If it's possible to get a list of animals in your library? We want about 1 minute of assorted clips per animal. The producer will of course need to screen all the footage and approve them. We would pay a flat rate per 1 minute of animal used on the show. You will also get a copy of the show on DVD and a credit at the end of the show. Please take a look at our website, and see some clips from our show. Steve Rotfeld Productions: Welcome

Thanks,
Matt Jay

Matthew.

These links are for your own amusement, nothing else. - Images of south western Australian bandicoots or quendas coping in a semi-urban environment. In their truly wild state, motion mages of authentic behaviours will be a lot more difficult to obtain.

Obvious issues are :-

The ethics of feeding wild animals which have become challenged by urban expansion into habitat, chiefly the stress introduced by point-source supplementing food supply resulting in local overcrowding and competition.

Is there a positive payoff in that an endangered species survives numerically but at the expense of independence and possibly deleterious species alteration due to natural selection in an artificial environment that may adversely impact the diminshing true wild population.

Matthew Jay · January 24th, 2013, 07:56 AM

bob,

Do you shoot these videos?

Matt

Bob Hart · January 24th, 2013, 10:21 PM

Matt.

I did shoot those clips but do not do nature film work for a living. They were shot on the rear verander of my place. These little guys use the rather unkempt back garden and a fern thicket as a refuge.

It is one thing to set up a camera and let it roll in a controlled environment, another to try to locate these little guys doing their thing in the wild. I think a lot of the nature documentary footage on them would have to be done in a controlled environment like an animal refuge with borescope cameras for pouch views of the young etc..

The population swings between about two and five, up to ten I have seen when they have a bit of a breeding season. The fights between the males are so spontaneous and anywhere that it would require a lot of doing nothing else for weeks just hoping the contest will kick off.

There is another lucky clip on youtube of two males fighting on a path. They get up on their back legs like roos and wrestle. They do a sort of a jujitsu-style hip throw when one overpowers the other.

David Parer is our Australian nature documentary icon.

David Parer - IMDb

He may have stock footage you can access. I have no connection with him or his production company except a very tenuous linkage via my old aunt and her friend Joan Parer who also lived in Roleystone around the time of WW2. Legendary Australian war cinematographer Damien Parer apparently was her brother.

Meryem Ersoz, who posts here under the Under Water Over Land threads here may have knowledge of nature documentarians in Eastern Australia.
