Demo Reel: Recent National Geographic shoot about the Nasca Lines in Peru


This is the promo for a one hour National Geographic doc that I recently shot in Peru. Directed by Phil Day, it will premiere February 21, 2010 at 10pm west coast on the Nat Geo channel. We shot in July and August 2009 spending three weeks in Peru. The show includes expert interviews, archeological digs, recreations and aerials. I think you will enjoy... A must see if you still believe the lines were created by aliens visiting earth millions of years ago! let me know... Wes

side note - This was quite an adventure in itself, but also included an armed hold up of our hotel one night, where some of our crew were waken at gun point, tied up as the gunmen went room by room looking for the "gringo with the camera".... which was next to my bed. They did not get to my room as our tied up driver Carlos managed to break free and wake everyone in the hotel and scaring the robbers to leave. No one seriously hurt, just shaken nerves...
