The RED Collective has featured wildlife and nature image maker and journalist Paul Nicklen in a short film about his approach and philosophy to filmmaking and photography and how this ties in with his involvement with his environmental charity Sea Legacy.

I think if you were nervous of animals and didn’t understand their intent it would be a terrifying thing to have 20 sea lions pulling on you; pulling on your head, your regulator, your gear, getting dragged around behind by your fins, chewing on your camera, but the hardest part is to be able to shoot through a mask that has ben flooded because you are laughing so hard because you are having one of the greatest experiences of your life.”
