Brief
Pre- and post-production, plus media management, for the ninth and final instalment of the wildlife series fronted by biologist Jeremy Wade.

How it was done
Working with high frame rate Ultra HD footage, colourist Christian Short used Baselight for the grade. He ensured that the reconstructions looked gritty, to emphasise the horror of the attacks and to differentiate those scenes from live action. Fishing segments were graded and stylised to suit locations, heat or weather. Chris Gunningham and Martin Ralph completed the online. For the audio, dubbing mixers Paul Donovan, Adam Palmer and Brian Moseley pushed the sound in order to make it as big and bold as possible. Roy Noy, George Fry and Ian Bown completed the sound design. Timo Baker provided the score.
