Rooiputs Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. Filming African wildlife behind-the-scenes series PREVIEW
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 чер 2023
- In this wildlife filmmaking behind-the-scenes series, Rob and Andy travel to Rooiputs in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. Rooiputs is the name of the waterhole, campsite, and lodge 25km up the Nossob river from Twee Rivieren/Two Rivers. On this safari our primary objective is to find and film caracal, but we are also looking for general Kalahari wildlife: lion, cheetah, leopard, raptors, gemsbok, cape cobra, and all the smaller species that make this part of the world so special.
The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park is a massive game reserve and national park in the Kalahari. It occupies an area of 38 000 square kilometres. The reserve spans both South Africa and Botswana and borders Namibia. Rooiputs campsite and lodge are across from Rooiputs waterhole, on the Botswana side of the dry Nossob riverbed that marks the border between South Africa and Botswana. The harsh Kalahari environment, vast red dunes, and ancient riverbeds support a fascinating variety of desert-adapted species, making this conservation area a very popular destination for wildlife photography and cinematography. Unlike most of our adventures, in this series we are only visiting one location and thoroughly exploring a small section of the park in search of the elusive caracal. Follow along as we set up camp in the unfenced wilderness campsite and attempt to capture footage of the park's diverse and majestic wildlife.

Hi Rob and Andy it was nice to meet you during our stay at Rooiputs. Love the video!!!

Wow! What a SHOWREEL. You're hired :)
Took a while to recognise the suave fellow alongside Andy :) Both of you looking refreshed and raring to go.
A caracal would be special indeed for all of us. Can hardly wait for next Sunday.

Thanks Lotta.
Great video! Can't wait to watch the whole series!
Thanks. The cape cobra in the video was in your parents campsite the day after they left 🙂
@Moving Pictures Africa Oh wow, really! Well, I think they had enough of snakes for a while. They had a close encounter with a pofadder in their campsite at Polentswa... Also, thanks for the advice about shorts. It definitely helped to gain some more subscribers, but the channel growth is still going quite slow. We still have a long way to go and much to learn. I think we might also need to invest in better equipment. The Gopro alone will only take you so far. Love your camera and the awesome quality it produces!
nice was there few weeks ago , lovely place
Thanks Chris. First episode will be uploaded tomorrow afternoon. Hope you enjoy it 🙂
Love you guys! 😂
Thanks! Hope you enjoy the series.
Great teaser!!! Looking forward to the new episodes.
And, handsome Andy is recognizable, sporting new and full facial growth. But who’s the clean shaven dude harassing him??? 😮😂
😂 poor hairy Andy
@@MovingPicturesAfrica 😂😂😂
The feud continues.
Where is the rest! Liked the pace!
Thanks. This is just a preview. Full episodes will be coming out every Sunday 👍
