Tarkine Rainforest clearfell (republished with higher res pic)
The clip that seems to have stirred up so much interest is only a small taste of the coming documentary, The Tarkine: Saving the last of Gondwanaland.
Film will be around the 10 minute mark so that it can be distributed virally via the web. Hopefully reaching million within weeks or months.
The clip Frank sent you was only a quick edit of a coupe we discovered while filming …

I’m currently editing the film and this clip will be a part of it.
Once it is seen in context it will then make more sense to the viewer. I should have the film completed within a month.
At that time it will be released to the world to do what they please with it, except to edit it in anyway.
If you would like to put the current clip up on YouTube I’m fine with that, but I believe it would be better to wait for the final film.
If you would like to see images of the incredible beauty that is being systematically destroyed go to my website http://photopia.me/index.php/section-blog/australia/the-tarkine-56k.html and have a look. These and many more will be part of the documentary. I would hazard to guess that in some of the images I shot, no white man had ever set foot there, until now.
