Neil Lucas, photographer, award-winning director & filmographer, was a producer with the BBC’s world renowned Natural History Unit for over 20 years. During that time he worked on many international award-winning productions, including Sir David Attenborough’s Trials of Life, The Private Life of Plants, The Life of Mammals, Planet Earth and the highly acclaimed Life Series.
Michael Pitts is widely regarded as one of Britain’s foremost underwater cameramen. However, he is equally happy shooting on the surface or from the air. The many awards he has received include EMMYs for cinematography on two BBC landmark series, David Attenborough’s The Private Life of Plants and Blue Planet.
Michael and Neil have worked closely together on many assignments and they will relate the successes and the disasters they have experienced during their extraordinary careers, including the complications of sinking a ship in the Caribbean and searching for the rare plant Amorphophallus titanum in the Sumatran rainforest.
