National Geographic: The Photographers (1995)

Member Rating:

This documentary explores the people and stories behind the photographs that have made National Geographic Magazine the standard for photojournalism. Several of the photographers responsible for some of the magazine's most memorable images detail, in their own words, what it is like to endure malaria, freezing temperatures, and angry animals to get the perfect shot. In some sequences film cameras follow the still photographers into the field. ~ Ed Atkinson, Rovi

Great documentary. A mix of commentary and reports of various photographers on assignment, you won't find much in here in the way of specific tips or camera "how-to's". What you DO get is a fascinating glimpse into the minds and lives of the individuals who have captured some of National Geographic's most haunting images and covers. And with that glimpse you get a sense, almost by osmosis, of what makes a great and memorable photograph. The documentary also introduces several exotic places and people these photographers have seen and met on their assignments. When it ended, I felt as if I had been around the world and met these same people, and I felt richer for it.
