After obtaining a degree in journalism and media at Rhodes University studies, I have been a producer, director, and cinematographer of socio-environmental documentaries for the past 30 years. 20 years ago I produced a documentary called “The Wild Coast….a fragile Paradise” in which I explored the natural beauty and rich natural resource base of this unique coastline. 20 years down the track and now is the perfect opportunity through this “Wild Coast Warriors” film to incorporate these globally relevant themes. Previous clients have included BBC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, Animal Planet, and local South African television broadcasting platforms. Other clients have been a diverse number of NGOs and academic institutions. A common theme in many productions has been the undermining motivation of creating awareness, shifting perceptions/attitudes, and actually making a difference.
