Conservation through education.

Berni Martin - Founder of Project Media

Based in Aberdeenshire in the north east of Scotland, alongside our documentary films, we provide media support to small groups who do not have large budgets to promote the work they do. We have recently formed a collective joined by a group of specialists on a non-profit-making basis to promote conservation work across many more fields.

CONSERVATION THROUGH EDUCATION

All of our films are made as a free to use educational resource.

To the Journey’s End has been viewed nearly two and a half million times on YouTube and used in educational establishments in many nations around the world.

I was very proud to be contacted by a first nations organisation on the Atlantic coast of North America who used the film to create a dance to celebrate the salmon’s life cycle for primary school children.

Testimonials.

  • "Following the salmon’s mighty journey as it battles for the chance to produce the next generation, To The Journey’s End clearly demonstrates why this is such an iconic species. The film footage captures the hidden behaviors that are key to their success, and the dramatic shots also invokes a passion for Scotland’s rivers and environment and reminds us why we are so lucky to be part of this natural environment."

  • This is an inspirational film about the life of the Atlantic salmon; beautifully filmed in the north east of Scotland, it highlights many of the threats this iconic species faces in our rivers. Above all it is educational and a great resource that practitioners such as myself can use to inform future generations. The Spey Fishery Board were honoured to be able to help during the filming.”
