Prequel
A prequel to the new natural history series A Perfect Planet, narrated by Sir David Attenborough. Featuring an original score from composer Ilan Eshkeri, the prequel introduces the forces of nature supporting life on Earth that the series will explore.
Making of A Perfect Planet
David Attenborough is known for coverage of animal life. A Perfect Planet focuses on earth science topics and landscapes. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, Attenborough saw the series as well-timed, saying: "This year perhaps more than ever, people are finding comfort and solace in the natural world". The series was produced by Silverback Films, with filming beginning in 2016 and spanning 31 countries. The crew numbered around 200 and 3,000 hours of footage were captured. By the time the pandemic affected the production, it was in the editing stage, much of which was done remotely. Unable to record in his usual studio in Bristol, Attenborough converted his dining room into a sound stage by hanging duvets from the walls. He used a microphone with a lead that went into his garden. A string orchestra recorded music in Iceland, one of the few places such a gathering was possible, while woodwind and brass performers recorded their parts separately from their homes.
