Documenting a Disaster: The WW1 Combat Cameraman (No AI)

These haunting battlefield scenes may well be the most recognisable footage of the First World War: men huddled in a sunken road, troops waiting to go “over the top,” a massive mine erupting under enemy trenches, and wounded men being rescued from no-man’s-land, but, did you know, it was all captured under fire by a single cameraman on a single day.

Join us as we follow t hat one man, using his own diary entries, matched precisely with trench maps, modern terrain footage, and the original film he shot, we’ll retrace his steps and investigate what he captured on the infamous opening day of the Battle of the Somme.
