Hello Everyone,
My name's Ben and I am an amateur naturalist. I work for a tour operator and we design new, unique and different experiences, hence our name, Different Tracks. Considering my background passions, I wanted the company to step away from the traditional African and Indian Big Game Safari options and begin offering new experiences to specialist groups of people on a 'unique wildlife experience' basis.
I am a wildlife artist too and we have successfully begun Art Safaris to the remote Zambian bush, but now we are looking to offer some other amazing expereinces to the wildest, most untouched reaches of the planet.
We currently have a few places left on our 'Wildlife Sound Recording' trip to India's Corbett National Park- this is ofcourse as much of a safari in search of Tigers, Elephants, leopards and Indian jungle life as it is a fascinating sound recording course with the biggest personality out there - Chris Watson. Chris is the chief sound recordist for the Spring and Autumnwatch programmes as well as presenting with Bill Oddie.
Chris became a sound recordist in 1981 when he joined Tyne Tees Television and is now widely regarded as one of the most creative sound artists in the business. His recent credits include, as mentioned above, the hugely popular Springwatch and Autumnwatch, and he received the Wildlife Film Asia Award for the BBC's Galapagos: Born of Fire. Watson also creates for the radio, with credits including Soundscape: The Sea Swallow, Watersong and The Estuary all for BBC Radio 4. See http://www.chriswatson.net
The Dates for this trip are Sun 29th March - Wed 8th April 2009.
The cost is £1990 per person and includes all meals in camp, accomodation, park fees and all flights.
The leader for the trip is Piers Warren, one of the leading experts in the world on Wildlife Film courses and trips.
Please contact me for a full itinerary and to book your place on the trip: ben@differenttracks.co.uk
Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you,
Ben Waddams and Different Tracks
