The very first time I used a video camera was in 1989. It was attached to a microscope during my first year marine biology field trip. Doc Alex and myself spent hours filming plankton collected on the Great Barrier Reef. It was the beginning of my filming career - he would be amazed at what we can do now filming plankton between 600 and 1000 frames per second in 4K. #wildmotiondocs #richard_fitzpatrick_acs #biopixeloceans #underwater #greatbarrierreef...

Filming for a major feature doc on the state of the planet. This is the topside setup from a three-camera anamorphic shoot. I’m using the Nauticam WACP-2 — my go-to for 2.4:1 aspect ratio projects on our RED Raptor - Super cinematic. For the camera nerds out there, you know what I mean.#wildmotiondocs #reddigitalcinema #richard_fitzpatrick_acs #shotonred #nauticam#screenqueensland...

When #qantas cancelled your flight tries to get you on 3 connections where there now is no way to get all rebooked luggage to destination to meet a boat. So now 6 hour delay and 7 hour drive instead of flying. Oh the joys of travel days - way more stressful than wrestling sharks...

I’m often told I have the best job in the world but some days it is very hard to document what is now the 7th Mass Bleaching event I have witnessed. The 5th in the past 8 years. At least I had a friend following me.🎥 #richard_fitzpatrick_acs#greatbarrierreef #greatbarrierreeffoundation #biopixeloceans...

One such method is time-lapse photography, an ideal monitoring tool for capturing changes that occur over a longer period of time.Photography and science have a long history, and our passion for science and nature, continues to be nurtured through what we do....

Last month @phil.breslin bought his Emmy to town to make sure it was shinier than Richard’s. Given Richard’s is a decade old, it was indeed shinier, however Rich is adamant his was bigger. 🤣 We loved working with Phil and Butter Media on Built to Survive, which took out the Emmy Award for the Kids: Factual & Entertainment category at the 2023 International Emmy awards in New York late last year. You can watch the amazing Built to Survive series now on ABC Iview. #builttosurvive #philbreslin @butter_media @abctv #biopixel #emmyaward...

Over the past week or so, there have been reports of bleaching over a number of areas on the Great Barrier Reef. Temperatures are currently 1-2 degrees above the long term average across the entire reef at present. The risk to already fragile coral is exacerbated by the recent record rainfall around the region.Coral bleaching is a phenomenon where corals lose their vibrant colours due to the expulsion of the algae, called zooxanthaellae, living within their tissues. It is a symbiotic relationship. The corals provide the algae with a protected environment, and the algae provide the corals with energy through photosynthesis and contribute to their coloration. The expolsion of the algae is the corals response to environmental stresses, leaving behind their translucent white skeleton....
