*Review of "Wild Hope" by HHMI for PBS on YouTube* By Paula Kahumbu "Wild Hope," presented by HHMI and PBS on YouTube, is a must-watch for all aspiring wildlife and nature storytellers and filmmakers. This documentary series beautifully portrays the efforts of conservation and the persistent hope that drives these initiatives. It focuses on the essential relationships between humans and nature, emphasizing the urgent need for conservation with clarity and passion. The visuals in episodes “Wild Hope" that I watched are truly captivating, showcasing the stunning beauty of wildlife and natural landscapes. For those eager to learn the craft of wildlife cinematography, this series is a rich resource, employing a variety of techniques such as aerial views, close-ups, and nighttime photography to enhance the storytelling. Each frame is not only a visual treat but also a lesson in filmmaking. But it’s the storytelling style that really impresses me, it’s inspiring and educational a powerful combination of messaging about dealing with environmental challenges. The pacing is excellent, expert are authentic, field actions, and moments of reflection to paint a comprehensive picture of conservation challenges and efforts. For our community of African filmmakers, "Wild Hope" could serve as a guide on how to approach our documentaries. It highlights the importance of clear storytelling and connecting emotionally with the audience, prompting us to consider carefully the stories we want to tell and the people we hope to reach. Importantly, the film speaks to a worldwide audience while maintaining a strong connection to local contexts—vitally important for filmmakers who want to create content that resonates both at home and abroad. It demonstrates how to mix universal themes with specific environmental concerns, paving the way for African filmmakers to tell stories that are deeply rooted in their local environments yet have global appeal.

You are Fired. The current filmmaking for brands, public service messaging, and developmental short documentaries have become a template factory. If your film isn’t looking at the very least different if not better from someone else’s, or even from your own previous work, then you should find yourself a new job. You will soon me excluded from the equation by automated software’s which will do your job in a lesser time. If as a filmmaker I haven’t evolved and grown with time, I am just a dinosaur waiting for extinction. #filmmaking #brandedcontent #documentaries #MIDar
