Wildfilmhistory debuts

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the first edited wildlife film In Birdland, and to celebrate this landmark, Wildscreen is launching a project that will make such film history available to the masses. Wildfilmhistory gathers all the important films and TV in the wildlife genre, as well as books and interviews, into a physical and online library open to the public. 'If you look at what's happened between 1907 and 2007,' says Richard Edwards, the project supervisor, 'what an incredible journey we've been on. We've gone from a few short minutes of black and white footage added together to the fabulous cinematography in Planet Earth.'
