Blue Planet II shows a new species of dolpins

Blue Planet II (6×50’), one of BBC Worldwide’s bets presented in the Liverpool showcase, taps into tech advances that didn’t exist 20 years ago, when the first Blue Planet series (8×50′) was launched, to visit deeper waters for longer periods of time, disvover new species, explore new locations and behaviors and to tell new stories.

James Honeyborne, executive Producer of Blue Planet, mentions that for this edition, they carried out 123 expeditions in 38 countries around the world. “We shot in each continent across all the oceans. I think the series has the same scale and ambition as the first one, but with the difference that in the 20 years that have passed since, there are so many new findings made by science, that we have new stories to tell”.

Regarding shooting days, the series took four years –more than 1400 days– and some 1000 hours of shooting at the bottom of the ocean in a submarine, “10 times more than what we were able to do in Blue Planet I,” expressed Honeyborne.

The BBC Showcase closed last Wednesday. The event on Tuesday finished with a dinner party and the presentation of Blue Planet II, where they showed some footage from the series which is still in the edition stage. It is estimated to be launched this year in the region.
