This is a sort of "bonus" episode for enthusiasts of the "Our Planet" series. It shows the preparations and execution of some of the most difficult shots. As a photographer and filmmaker, I was mesmerized by the crews' dedication, spending in some cases up to two years to get a few minutes of precious footage. My wife, who is not interested in the technical portion of filmmaking, was as excited as me about this film. We watched this before watching the actual series, and I think it could work both ways. Besides seeing what it takes to get each shot, one also experiences the devotion these filmmakers have for their craft. And, more importantly, their love for the animals. It feels like you're on an expedition with them.
