Putting Nature in the Picture: Bold stories about our biggest ally
We are a nation of nature lovers but somewhere along the way we've got lost. We are now 60% less connected with nature than we have been in 200 years.
Nature is our biggest ally and a rich source of inspiration for storytelling. By telling stories that reconnect us with nature the screen industries have an opportunity to inspire climate action and real-world change because when nature is woven into mainstream storytelling - familiar, credible and unforced - it stands a real chance of becoming a collective cultural concern.
From writer's rooms to living rooms, what we see on screen can have a direct impact on the world we live in. This conversation, presented by BAFTA Albert, will explore the rich potential of putting nature in the picture: from creative decisions and commissioning choices, to engaging on screen-talent and driving climate action once the credits have rolled.
