Abstract

This paper discusses the effects of the decision to include humans and other animals in the same frame in environmental documentaries. After a short discussion on the combination of environmental thought and the documentary concept, a number of examples of texts, documentary films and experimental films are discussed in which the inclusion of people and wild animals in the same frame provokes explicit reflection. The inclusive framing strategies of contemporary environmental documentaries are then introduced in this context: Sharkwater (Stewart, 2006), The Cove (Psihoyos, 2009) and Early Learning (Bortkiewicz, 2009).
