Behind the scenes shots for the short documentary directed by Gab Mejia and Ivan Torres in the Agusan marshes of the Philippines. The Manobo community in the Agusan Marshlands of the Philippines have mastered life on water. Their floating houses are able to withstand floods, rising water levels and typhoons, and allow them to move around the lake when the conditions change. These houses are seen by some as a solution to the threats posed by violent weather systems caused by climate change.

Stills from “Toad Patrol”short film 🎥- really enjoyed producing and directing this short film with a toad 🐸 patrol operating in Somerset. Volunteers ensure that the toads get across the road to the pond in the nearby wood where they spawn - helping the toads navigate the busy country road saves them from a painful death and is one way of trying to halt the decline of the toad population in 🇬🇧.

Land conflict Doc: In Search of Common Ground

A film we produced in Northern Cameroon last year about conflict between crop farmers and cattle herders in North Western Cameroon. What you see in the thumbnail is a crop, a cabbage, that has been nibbled at by a cow. This causes financial hardship for the crop farmer and they have no easy way of getting compensation. So arguments can turn violent, cattle stock are often cut or poisoned and distrust between the two tribes increases.
