Crew diaries, the stories behind the stories!
Filming Planet Earth 3 and BBC ASIA series in Oman
We are blessed to work on some of the biggest shows that film here in Oman, but the real privilege is working with the fantastic and inspiring crews that we take care of!
Looking back over the last three years, we have been so privileged to have worked so closely with the #bbc#naturalhistoryunit on some mammoth projects. It all kicked off with #planetearth3 and continued with #BBCASIA, a series exploring all the fantastic wildlife of the continent. Both these series were narrated by #sirdavidattenborough and hearing him name and talk about the Dhofar “Khareef” over shots that we spent months filming, was truly a life goal completed.
We haven't looked back since, fixing and facilitating for two other large #bluechip series that will be released in the next few years.
One of the great things about working with the BBC Natural History Unit, is getting the chance to use the newest available technologies to capture breathtaking imagery. From 6 month timelapses to document seasonal transitions, to RTK and inspire 3 repeat shots, and drone photogrammetry to build earth shaking VFX sequences - its always something slightly special.
We continue to show the world #oman and all her natural beauty and her charismatic flora and fauna, with a massive wildlife show that will be released in 2027!
One thing is certain, we are blessed to live in such an abundant country and to be in the position we are in to work on some of the biggest tv shows on this beautiful planet.
Revealing Omans hidden, ancient past with Adventurer Albert Lin
Adventure and expedition shoots - our bread and butter.
Its been a few years since we shot a fantastic episode of #Lostcitiesrevealedwith @exploreralbert but it is still one of the standout shoots we have worked on!
Adventure, mystique, archeology, technology - this show has it all and facilitating this shoot was entailed many challenges both in front of, and behind the camera. All our team were on their A game for this and some of the big hitters were involved - @chidi22 @alkhusibi00@meshal_alhooti @omani_garmin and of course @samijafferallawati and @jassim_jaffer.
Sitting around the campfire and listening to inspiring adventurer @exploreralbert and DOP @garyclarkedop jamming on guitars was one of the special moments we have had on shoots here in Oman and hanging out with the @visualskies_studios boyz and @marianne_archaeologist was fantastic craic!
We dropped the team into cave complex Majlis Al Jinn, rode on dirt bikes, discovered 500 year old structures underground and met some amazing archeologists along the way @queenofthebronzeage!
Highly recommend checking out this show on #disneyplus.
