Black Waters is available to watch now!🎬🌊

Working with Afanti Media, we helped bring the story of the Sea Empress disaster to the screen — one of the UK’s most significant environmental catastrophes. Using detailed CGI, we recreated the tanker and oil spill to capture the scale of the disaster and its lasting impact on the Welsh coastline.

Black Waters aired on BBC Wales on 18th February and is now available to watch on BBC iPlayer and Apple TV.

Huge thanks to Afanti Media and the wider team for bringing us on board for such an important and powerful project.

The Five Great Forests of Mesoamerica is live on YouTube!

“What happens in Central America directly affects the birds we love in the United States and Canada,” said Anna Lello-Smith, lead author and conservation scientist at WCS. “These forests aren’t just tropical wilderness-they’re at the heart of migration, sustaining may of our birds for more than half the year. They provide the food and shelter that allow Wood Thrushes, Magnolia Warblers, and so many others to return north to fill our spring with song and color.”

Such a pleasure to work with our friends at Cornell Lab of Ornithology using bird data to create a range of maps that help enhance and better visualise just how vital the 5 Great Forests are for the birds that inhabit them - catch the full film on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrWMzKBV1wo

From the 16th November, PBS airs its landmark six-part, 12-hour documentary series 'The American Revolution'. Directed by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt, it examines America’s founding struggle, presenting the story of the men and women of the Revolutionary generation, their humanity in victory and defeat, and the crisis that they lived through. The American Revolution is an expansive, evenhanded look at the virtues and the contradictions in the fight for independence and the birth of the United States.

Maps were a huge part of the series and 422 South produced 3D recreations to help master the complexity of the stories of some of the most significant battles.

Make sure you watch the trailer below and Catch the premiere on Sunday on PBS or stream anytime on the PBS App.

Delighted to have worked with Werner Herzog on the superb ‘Ghost Elephants’ film premiering at this year's Venice Film Festival… ‘For a decade, Dr. Steve Boyes has been in search of a mysterious, elusive herd of Ghost Elephants in the highlands of Angola, a wooded plateau — virtually uninhabited, but in size as large as England. He sets out with master trackers from Namibia, the best remaining in the world, but there is a deep underlying question: would it not be better to keep these gigantic elephants rather as a dream, as ghosts, as the White Whale, than finding them in reality?‘
