ABOUT IBEX

Geoff Gartside has been filming wildlife professionally for over 20 years, not only in the UK but also in locations such as Alaska  Belize  British Columbia  Eithiopia  Equador  India  United States  West Africa and many European countries

IBEX FILMS was set up in 1999 and, working from our base in North Wales close to the breathtaking

scenery of the Snowdonia National Park, we really do have the natural world on our doorstep.

...and now we are making some of our material available as Stock Footage through IbexStock

  If you need that one extra shot to complete your project -give us a call - we may just have it.

Sir David Attenborough chose this programme as being one of his top five of all time in the long running BBC Natural History Unit series Wildlife on One

 

Here's what he had to say about it ....

 

Simplicity was the watchword here:  A lovely, very beautiful film.

Deliberately shot to create an atmosphere where you would only see what you would see if a stoat came in your garden and you had a pair of binoculars.  No hidden cameras, no funny angles.  It created a picture of rural life that was most beguiling".

​

and "Stoats in the Priory"  won Geoff an award at the International Film Festival in Missoula,Montana ​
