Nigel Pope (Producer) and Donald Shaw

Composing music for wildlife documentaries is a challenging but ultimately rewarding process. Natural History Producer Nigel Pope and Composer Donald Shaw have been recently collaborating on Hebrides-Islands on the Edge, a landmark wildlife series for BBC Scotland. Nigel and Donald will reveal what's needed to score music for an orphaned otter, a sea slug and the rich flowering meadows of the Outer Hebrides. As well as the benefits of using real instruments and real music for film.
