www.flying-penguin.co.uk When you’re filming nocturnal animals, birds or insects, you will seem more like a scientist than a filmmaker. You know you can’t film without some sort of light. Thankfully, modern security camera equipment (especially night vision cameras) have come down in price and can take care of that problem. But you also want to film animals behaving naturally. They won’t do that if they can see or sense the security camera equipment in their territories. So you need to figure out how to hide your security camera equipment in order not to startle your subjects. Lions – Spy In the Den One ground-breaking BBC documentary on African lions, Lions – Spy In The Den (2001), came up with a brilliant way of hiding security camera equipment. They disguised it in a remote control fake boulder. It took a couple of weeks for the lion prides to get used to an unusually fast boulder following them about, but they soon ignored it. It became part of their natural landscape. They were able to get extraordinary night shots – but also shots in the daytime. Although it seemed that we couldn’t learn anything more about lions, bouldercam did.familyhomeHome Improvementsafetysecurity
