••• ABOUT THIS VIDEO •••
Before I left Svalbard I had a unique opportunity to do an interview with Jason Roberts - the man behind the logistics for films like Planet Earth, Blue Planet, Far North, The Hunt etc.

Jason Roberts is an award winning filmmaker, polar expert, worlds leading authority on Polar Bears and a dedicated environmentalist. He has devoted over two decades of his life to both Arctic and Antarctic, working with the production of natural history films specialising in the polar regions.

Jason is opening his doors and showing some the highly specialised equipment used for these productions. He is also sharing behind the scenes knowledge from the biggest and most succesful nature documentaries.

Happy watching and stay tuned for the next video.

••• WHO I AM •••
My name is Morten Hilmer and I am a professional nature and wildlife photographer.
I am a Nikon Ambassador and I work as an ILCP photographer.
Nature conservation is very close to my heart.

I have served in the Danish military special unit, the Sirius Patrol, for two years and that has given me the skills and confidence to operate alone in the arctic regions. I have spent two further years in the northern parts of Greenland meeting the local people and working on photography projects. My driving force is a sense of adventure and my fascination for nature, and my curiosity and empathy for other cultures has led me to many remote regions.

Beside being featured in publications and in my books books my photographs have been awarded in the Wildlife photographer of the year and European Wildlife photographer of the year photo competitions.
