Wilkinson
With more than 15 years of experience, I am a highly skilled cinematographer, filming award-winning natural history documentaries in some of the most challenging environments on Earth.
​
Recently, I've been working with the BBC Natural History Unit and Silverback Films, using Shotover, GSS, and Cineflex stabilised platforms, including helicopter and electric ATV, to film sequences for a number of landmark documentaries. In addition, having been one of the first licensed pilots to have flown drones in the natural history film making genre, I continually strive to be innovative to create fresh and beautiful aerial imagery even in the most difficult of locations.
​
I am passionate about telling remarkable stories and creating spectacular imagery with the hope of inspiring and educating audiences around the world.
​
Having witnessed first-hand the catastrophic effects of climate change on shoots, especially in polar regions, I am deeply committed to carbon neutrality and personally offset my travel through MyClimate.org in addition to working with productions that strive for nutrality.
