Life That Glows is a globe trotting exploration into the world and science of ability of many organisms, on land and in the ocean, to create light. This phenomenon is called bioluminescence. Filming bioluminescence is a particularly difficult challenge for film makers, requiring experience, skill, and cutting edge technology to pull off successfully. Life That Glows, I believe, represents the very best of what could be produced with the technology available in 2016, revealing animals and behaviors never seen before on television.
I am fortunate enough to have contributed the first ever video footage of a bioluminescent millipede for the film. The Motyxia millipedes were among a handful of species featured in the film that have never been seen before on television
David Attenborough’s Life that Glows has won several awards, including the Jackson Hole Science Media Double Helix (Best in show), and Wildscreen Panda Awards in both Science and Technological innovation.
