Paul Olding

I am a Tv and Film Director and Producer specialising

in science films for the BBC. My films include the award winning

Titan A Place like Home, Earth Power of the Planet with Prof Iain Stewart,

the acclaimed drama doc The Genius Sperm Bank and explorations of Gravity, Time and most recently the entire Solar System with Prof Brian Cox.

I also run my own film production company called

Bongo Reef Pictures which currently makes short film HD dramas, our

most recent being the award winning ‘Taxi’.

I have a fair bit of experience as a self shooting HD cameraman, including underwater filming, tapeless systems and specialist cameras. Another new venture for 2010 is DandPTimelapse Photography.

I am also a published writer and photographer.

A zoologist by training, I have a doctorate from Oxford University in Australian Microhylid frog calls (!). I have specialist knowledge in frogs, reptiles and mammals, take an active interest in the public understanding of science, and regularly give illustrated talks to primary schools on rocks and our solar system.
