ZDFE Co-Pro Africa from Above Starts Filming

The new factual series Africa from Above, produced by Off the Fence Productions and with ZDF Enterprises as its global distributor, has commenced filming.

The ten-part series looks at Africa’s people, places and wildlife from a new perspective, weaving through mountains, coastlines, waterfalls and jungles. Africa from Above captures the lives of the continent’s wild animals and also travels through towns and cities to explore its history, architecture, industry and unique cultures.

Also on board the production are ZDF, ARTE, ORF and Britain’s UKTV, owned by BBC Studios.

Ralf Rueckauer, VP of ZDFE.unscripted at ZDF Enterprises, said: “This production will capture Africa in a way that has never been seen before, using the latest technology, airborne and on the ground. We are delighted to offer this beautiful series to our clients shortly—these are the kind of pictures audiences are longing to see in the current times.”
