Chasing the equinox | Shooting Producer

2019 | National Geographic, 9pm | Pioneer Productions, 1 x 60’                                                                          

Presenter-led, specialist factual anthropology single examining how ancient civilisations built iconic monuments that align with the sun on the same day. The ancients hid the secrets of their incredible knowledge of astronomy in their temples and palaces, built to align with the sun, on the same day, all over the world. Revealing our species’ obsession with the sun, across thousands of years and every continent, this is architectural magic on a cosmic scale.

I directed, produced and shot single camera a quarter of the episode filmed in Mexico, in just four days.
