Wildlife Films and Field Studies

This page brings together a selection of personal wildlife films and short field studies filmed across the UK. The work includes deer, foxes, barn owls and other native species, captured through patient observation and low-impact fieldwork.

These are not commissioned conservation films. They show my approach to wildlife behaviour, natural habitats, camera work and editing as I develop a stronger body of work around rivers, wetlands and nature recovery.

Selected Wildlife Films

These short films focus on individual species, natural behaviour and the habitats around them. Each was created through independent fieldwork rather than as a commissioned conservation project.

The work shows my approach to observation, camera movement, composition and editing across British wildlife and landscapes.

Deer in the British Landscape

A quiet study of deer behaviour and movement through their natural habitat, filmed through patient observation and long-lens camera work.

Red Fox Field Study

A short wildlife film following red fox behaviour, with the emphasis on natural movement, atmosphere and the surrounding landscape.

Barn Owls at Dusk

Observational footage of barn owls hunting and moving through open countryside as the light changes towards evening.

Hares in Cornwall

A short wildlife study of brown hares across the Cornish landscape, filmed through patient observation with a focus on natural behaviour, movement and habitat.

Fieldcraft, Camera Work and Natural Storytelling

Although these films were created independently, they demonstrate the practical skills needed for wildlife and conservation productions.

Patient Fieldwork

Research, repeated visits and quiet observation allow natural behaviour to unfold without forcing the subject or disturbing the habitat.

Wildlife Camera Work

Long-lens filming, careful framing and attention to changing light help place each species within the wider landscape.

Editing and Atmosphere

Each sequence is shaped through pacing, sound and visual detail to create a clear sense of behaviour, habitat and season.

New River and Wetland Films in Development

I am now developing a new body of work around rivers, wetlands, canals and nature recovery. These films will focus on habitat, seasonal change, wildlife behaviour and the practical work involved in protecting and restoring waterways.

The first projects will be created in collaboration with local wildlife charities and river groups. They will allow me to build stronger case studies while producing useful films and photography for the organisations involved.

Archive Wildlife Showreel

This 2020 showreel brings together earlier wildlife footage filmed before my current focus on rivers, wetlands and conservation storytelling.

It remains part of the portfolio because it shows the range of species, locations and camera work developed through independent fieldwork.

Planning a Wildlife or Conservation Film?

I am available for wildlife camera work, conservation films and environmental projects across the UK. Tell me about the habitat, species, audience and outcome you need, and I can recommend a realistic approach.
