Another paradox is that the growth in wildlife filmmaking also paralleled the growth of wildlife hunting in Southern Africa. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe study turns to Actor-Network theory to examine the complex interplay between local filmmakers, international commissioning agents like Mike Rosenberg, international broadcasters and the animals involved. It argues that Southern African filmmakers were often able to aim successfully both at European and North American markets and points to ways in which innovations from Southern Africa influenced broadcasting trends internationally, particularly in the move away from a British blue-chip BBC ethos and style. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt concludes with an examination of Africam and WildEarth and the vision of founder Graham Wallington about the future of wildlife documentary. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ian Glenn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1839981504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781839981500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Ian Glenn","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44077569507583,"sku":"9781839981500","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c2628936-3c09-4235-8188-5e7b403ad9d2.jpg?v=1685470655","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wildlife-documentaries-in-southern-africa-ian-glenn-9781839981500","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
