Human Planet is a BBC/Discovery landmark documentary series, which is currently in production. The eight part series will celebrate the human species and look at our relationship with the natural world by showing the remarkable ways we have adapted to life in every environment on earth.[1]
The production teams are based in both BBC Bristol and BBC Wales, and over two years, will be shooting over 70 stories in some of the most remote locations on earth spanning some 40 different countries. Each episode of the series will focus on a different Human inhabited environment, including deserts, jungles, the arctic, grasslands, rivers, mountains, oceans and the urban landscape.
For the first time on a BBC landmark series the production has a dedicated stills photographer, Timothy Allen who is documenting the project photographically for the books that will accompany the series.[2]
Human Planet is due to be broadcast on BBC One in autumn 2010, with international release to follow soon after. [3]
