Description

Jean Hartley, born in Kenya, is acknowledged as being the first to legitimise ìfixingî for natural world film crews. During the last 25 years, she has worked on over a thousand films, the vast majority being about natural world and nature. She features five of the great film makers who all began their careers in Kenya in the1950s, legends whom she is proud to call personal friends. Watching all of their films, and lots of more, she became serious about the history of film making in Kenya and decided to find out when it began. On this insightful book, she traces the roots of natural world film back a hundred years, drawing on accounts of the original film makers and the professional hunters who guided those early safaris. She tracks the changes from those grainy, speeded up, silent films through to the technologically perfect High Definition and 3D films which can be being made nowadays.
