A Movie on Awareness For A Project

The human race is about to destroy a beautiful continent. Africa's wildlife is in danger... Lots of people are sitting back, getting upset, but feeling helpless... It seems like a devils circle...
My project was about making a 2min video. I was thinking what I can chose for a social commentary. spending a view month at Lake Tanganyika in Zambia I experienced what it means when the society needs to kill wildlife for food. It is a harsh reality...
My short movie is about men who stand up for wildlife and would do anything to stop the killing... Tourism enjoy magnificent sightings during the day, but as soon as the sun disappears at the horizon the human race is out there to kill and destroy. How far will it go? will the next generation still be able to enjoy Africa as it used to be? or will the photographs and film footage be the only evidence? what can we do? i have got huge respect for people as Jonathan Colin who fight for justice and protection. Filming behind a big fence should show that our wildlife might only be safe behind bars... Is that the future we seeking for? Or who should actually be behind bars?

Life is the only game with the sole purpose of learning the rules.

To Be Independent


Photograph by Jessica Keller

Depending on something or someone doesn’t work in the real world. But how hard is it not too? The only thing you want to do is trust people, chances and circumstances.

Certain things can change in a split second. Life could be fantastic filled with good people and love. People depend too often on certain situations and they don’t believe it could change the next day. But life is full of surprises. Don’t depend on circumstances. Be independent, so you will be able to accept every challenge, which will come your way.

Depending on someone leads to disappointment. People will disappoint you... They say that they will never leave your side, but guess what when it gets tough and hard all they want to do is run. And you will stand there with only little hope left. That little hope will often be your life savior... You need to get up and walk tall. Accept that people will come and go. Live your life and make yourself happy.

It is your choice to be disappointed or free. Hope will never leave you, but also can be the biggest enemy in your daily life. Hope sometimes keeps you at certain stages in life, you not moving on because you depending on hope. Make sure you have got the strength to get up and move on. Life is short. Make the best out of it. Stop over analyzing, life is simple... Live your dream and share your passion, never let it go because of depending on a situation or someone.

Nick Brandt

Life is harsh sometimes and it feels like I'm not getting anywhere at the moment.

I would love to switch off, even if it is just for a split second and drift into a world where everything seems to be beautiful.


Nick Brandt gave me the chance to dream for a while. His work is outstanding. He captures stunning photographs of the nature and the wildlife. Some of his photographs are unreal and let you forget the real world for a moment. What an amazing photographer he is... That would be one of my dreams... Living in the bush for a while, experiencing the peace and quiet and capture special, different shots of wildlife and nature.
