Ollie Laker at Figure Nine is a level 3 IRATA rope access specialist who sets up forest canopy rope access for basic IRATA level 1 mortals like me. Setting up cable dollies through dense forest and installing high platforms in emergent trees, for example when filming gibbons, can be far from simple. Ollie’s flexible approach, can do attitude and friendly nature make these demanding shoots an absolute pleasure.

Choldeton Estate comprises 2,500 acres of downland and farmland South of Salisbury Plain. It is a model of best practice for farmers and conservation organisations, a profitable farm holding breeding stone curlews, barn owls, lapwing (RSPB Southern lapwing Champion for several years), grey partridge, loads of hares, corn buntings, 34 species of butterfly and much more besides. I have probably filmed wildlife on 50 or more farms up and down the country and I'm sure there is nowhere finer than Cholderton.
