The new David Attenborough doc on Netflix OUR PLANET is so ridiculously beautifully well shot i thought it was cgi. It’s unlike any other doc ive seen. How did they do this?

The footage in Netflix’s Our Planet is seriously stunning. You almost wouldn’t believe it’s real, that such breathtaking wonders exist, it looks like CGI. Especially to a through-and-through city girl like me, who’s never seen a desert or snow.

Our Planet: CGI
Attenborough’s documentaries are renowned for displaying the most overwhelming images from our reality.
Our Planet makes no exceptions.
Visually, everything the audiences sees has been captured in real life by the crew. Of course, the project took years to develop, but this fact makes it so worth it.
