‘The Chinese Alligator: Species on the Brink”<\/strong> is a look at the plight of China’s only crocodilian species and the effects of decades of wetlands reclamation on population numbers.\u00a0By combining stills, video, interviews and time-lapse photography I hope this piece provides a visually interesting account of the current situation, as well as an informative one.<\/p>\nThis is the first in a series of multimedia pieces that I will be producing for the Pulitzer Center over the coming weeks and months, so please do stay tuned for more.<\/p>\n
The piece above is hosted on Vimeo where you can watch it in full HD at 1280×720. As it is HD, it may take a little time to load but I hope it’s worth the wait to get the best out of the video and stills. For all you techies out there, the whole piece was shot with a Canon 7D with 16-35mm F2.8 and 70-200 F4.0 lenses and audio was recorded on an M-Audio Microtrack II.<\/p>\n
Once you start the piece, you will notice that there are interchanging Chinese and English subtitles. It has been one of my main aims to start reaching out to my Chinese audience more and I hope by producing these pieces in both languages that the message of the piece will reach more people. As Vimeo is blocked in China, I will be releasing this piece on Youku and Tudou soon. Please stay tuned for that.<\/p>\n
If you have any thoughts or feelings about the piece, I am always happy to hear them!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
