The story

Established in 2007, Earth Touch pioneered a rapid filming and production cycle using high definition (HD) cameras and satellites.

Earth Touch has since built up an extensive archive of HD footage of animal behaviour, filmed primarily in southern Africa, but also Thailand, Antarctica, Indonesia, Brazil, Ecuador and the United States. The company also produced a number of wildlife and nature broadcast programmes that were screened in South Africa and Australia.
